Hi all I have a swan outback that I park on the front lawn but it is on an incline I use the swans leveling struts to keep it stable and reasonably straight but is this good long term should I buy some leveling ramps ? If so which type are the best ?

Honestly..
In an ideal world the caravan should be put under a carport or stored in a shed.
But i guess you dont have that luxury.
Soo buy the best caravan storage tarp you can buy.
As leaving it out in the sun requires regular roof maintenance to keep the van water tight / roof wise.
As for leaving it on a incline
Just buy some plastic wedge wheel chocks.
The mines use these and for the cheap cost its a great added protection of stopping the van rolling away.
This is for
parking long term...
Can also be used for quick overnight stays to get van on level too when hooked up to vehicle.

Yes just a pair of the levelling ramps then wheel chocks to stop any movement. We have a sloping driveway and the van sits nearly level using these which is good for running the fridge and water top ups before leaving on a trip.
Cover any wheel/tyre which gets a lot of sun, grease where necessary and
check pressures and gas before you go and you're off.
Enjoy.
