Default Leveling duallies

When leveling a duality, do i need to put a leveler under both wheels? Will it harm anything to only support one tire? Thx

It's all about how much weight is on the tire and how much it's rated for. Generally, I'd say put support under them both. Levelers are cheaper than tires.

Ramp both, when you ramp only one, you exceed the static WEIGHT RATING for the supported tire. TIP: If you have a rolling flat/ blowout, PLAN on replacing BOTH ASAP on that side. The rolling overload on the other tire does unseen INTERNAL DAMAGE, and it is easy to find MANY, MANY posts where owner blew the 2nd tire within 50-100-miles (due to this unseen internal damage)... often blaming MFR (unwarranted)

Must support both tires. Balance the load, don't leave one hanging.

I agree that you have to support both tires
