   My thoughts on this is that jacking a pod level from the four corners is creating strain on the pod's frame that it might not be designed to handle. Depending on the out of level situation, and a stronger stabilizer/jack, you might just be tweaking the frame. I know that I've read (somewhere, maybe on this forum?) where people have used the scissor jacks to level their pod, only to find that it's caused problems with the door frame.

Putting it another way, a stronger jack might be able to level your pod, but the frame might not be able to handle all that stress all the way out on the corner.
