Thread drift. I'm not asking for ways to level the van, I got that. What I'm looking for is an easy way to level the stove grill. Leveling it by leveling the van would require plenty of trips in and out to take a look at the grill's levelosity (bubble level, for example) then out to tweak the setup, then back in to look. Wash, rinse, repeat. Easier and quicker would be to just stand at the stove and level it through some means yet to be finalized. -- Jack "Rocket j Squirrel" Elliott 1984 Westfalia, auto trans, Bend, Ore.
