    Yeah I had always figured on using some sort of pin, 1/2" is the diameter. Hadn't considered Lowes though. Thanks!

    CVT uses the traditional ladder right? My intention has been to do a piece for both styles. I just need to measure a CVT style.

    The cvt summit series has a telescopic ladder like tepui but it's not exactly the same. I'm not sure of the diameter of the legs.

    What about making the adjustment a screw type thing like appliances use? Not sure if I am describing it correctly or not. Think of the feet on the bottom of your refrigerator, dishwasher or a washing machine but bigger. Might not be necessary to have that much adjustment, just a thought.

    True but no need to worry about losing a bolt or pin or whatever. Besides really how long would it take, 1 minute?

    Doing feet like this would require getting threads into the actual foot, whether that be welding a nut from inside or [insert other method here] to be stable/strong enough...
    Usually screw feet are used for leveling, not elevating. They're for fine increments. Unless it's a giant-thread screw.

    Well it was just an idea and/or suggestion anyways. I understand what your saying about getting the nut onto the foot but isn't the whole idea for leveling not for elevating. I mean if it was more than an inch or two apart from the other side of the ladder wouldn't you probably want to move the truck anyways because the tent wouldn't be level?

    Maybe it's me, maybe I am just misunderstanding the concept. IDK
