While my wife and I camp with our 2 small boys,
sometimes we find ourselves split up with the myself
in the top and her in the bottom each with a kid.

Well after awhile of this, she was getting "seasick"
whenever I would move around in the top.  Bill from VW
Bus Heaven, passed this tip and gave me a deal on the
solution.

Solution:

Park the passenger side rear wheel on the highest
point on the campsite.

Get three (3) stock vanagon jacks and install them in
the stock jackpoints in all but the passenger rear
wheel.  If you put one here you will not be able to
open the slider.

I bought myself a small carpenters leveler at a $1
store and set it on top of the stove and adjust the
height as needed.

While being able to provide a near perfectly level
sleeping surface, it also keeps the van from a
rockin'!!

Plus having the extra jacks also helps in rotating
tires every 5k miles.
