We ordered a BAL light trailer tire leveler over 4 weeks ago and its still on back order. We need to be leaving home later this week so it won't be here in time to do us any good. We have called a few dealers in the direction we are traveling thinking maybe someone had one on hand but we are having no luck. Most have never heard of it and one was helpful enough to check 4 different suppliers. Of the 4, only 1 supplier had 1 available but it takes several days to arrive. We are traveling through the Dakotas to Alaska. Got any suggestions ? By the way, I was told RV service departments are having a dickens of a time getting parts this year. Some are made in the Southern states and some of them have even shut down.

Push come to shove, use 1"x4" board cut to two foot lengths.
Stack them on top of each other, as needed.
For a commercial option and easier to use, LynxLevellers at Walmart (orange plastic stackable pads).

I was going to order mine from here. Upon checkout I got a weird feeling and googled their name. HORRIBLE reviews about over charging customers, not packing shipments for protection and no customer service. I ordered mine from Camping world on a Monday and hoped to have it by pull out friday for our first trip, It was on my porch when I got home Wednesday 
Should be in Stock here

Thank you for your replies. I had searched & found suppliers that will send me one, but time is too short for that to happen now. I was asking if anyone could point me to a dealer between the Dakotas and Alaska that would have one on hand and I could pick it up there. We thought we started looking early enough and the dealer kept our hopes up by quoting a price of $64.95 then came the big let-down when it was backordered several times. By now, I'm frustrated with the un-helpful people in their Parts Dept. I got the feeling that if I was buying a huge 5th wheel with 4 slides, they could find time to help me. We'll just go with the boards we've always used.

Not to start a debate but I have ordered 3 times in the last few months from sportsmans . No problems at all am getting ready for fourth order. Perhaps I have been lucky, or you need to step out from under that dark cloud

If you're going via Seattle, the Apache dealership in Everett is where we bought ours.

Are they really that easy to use? How do they raise the tire? Do you need one for each tire on a dual axle?
Thanks, Tom
