ABSTRACT:
A leveling and stabilizing system for a carrier having a wheel and axle support supporting a suspension system which in turn supports the carrier body, such as a motor home. Stabilizing units are mounted to be extendable to directly support the carrier body on the wheel and axle support. The stabilizing units are utilized to level the carrier when at a location. The stabilizing units provide a rigid support between the carrier body and the wheel and axle support. The stabilizing units in the preferred embodiment are cylinders mounted to the carrier body and the cylinders have rods or plungers that are extendable to engage pads on the wheel and axle support and are retractable to dis-engage the pads.
