TT Automatic Leveling System

We are considering going back to a Travel Trailer. We have had auto leveling in our last few RVs and want it again. Manually leveling is our least favorite thing about TTs. I know a few TTs have LCI Ground Control TT already installed from the factory, but none of the ones we are looking at have it.

If we get a TT, we would install it aftermarket. Is there anyone that has had an auto leveling system installed on their TT? I know there a few different manufactures of auto leveling for TTs so please let me know what brand you went with and are you satisfied with it?

Thanks in advance.

John

1st thing to check is if the TT is built for it. Not sure what TT you're looking at but if it's something like an Ultra Light then I'd be a little leary.

While not an answer to your question...jayco has been installing them. Also, the big detractor for me was how much CCC the leveling system took up. Not sure what the system weighs but make sure whatever trailer you choose can accommodate your cargo AND the leveling system once installed

Another option that weights nothing is the Level Up by Ed.....with an app on your smart phone, and the brain installed in trailer, I can pull into site, check the trailer level from the driver's seat, take my Anderson levelers and place either in front of or behind, move onto them, check'n level on the phone.....then add their chokes and X chocks between tires, take another reading of hitch height, un hitch, extend landing gear, drive out.....then level from front to back with landing gear........the hitch height remains in memory, so when time to rehitch, go back to that setting, and back right up.....really easy operation.....and not gett'n in and out 15 times is a big plus...

This seems like a good option. Do you have a link for the Level UP? I couldn't find anything on it, just the automatic leveling system from LCI which are Level Up.
