2011 314bds

I just picked up my trailer yesterday and brought it home from the dealers. I went 80 miles. It towed nicely, no issues. No brake issues what so ever. This trailer sits higher than my previous trailer, which was a 2002
Wilderness 31G which had a full room slideout. I've noticed that I need at least a few blocks to get a height of at least 8 inches under the stabilizing jacks and tongue jack. Are other owners experiencing the issue? If so, what are you using?

I am using 8x8 blocks and Linux blocks to get closer to the jacks.
