I need to convert inches to degrees when levelling my Roadtrek 170.The info is hard to find and sometimes contradictory.
Probably because the result depends on at least 1 variable - the distance between wheels (or width of the vehicle).
The closest info I found is this :
https://community.goodsam.com/t5/technical-issues/unlevel-refrigerator-question/td-p/770120
(see the attachment).
But the width of my RT is not 8 feet (6 ft 7 in) and I am not good at trigonometry.
So I could use your help.
Please,post here the ready results for the corresponding degrees from 1 to 5 in (if possible, include 0.5 values (1 ,1.5, 2, 2.5 etc).
I have no idea if the calculations in the attachment are the right one.That is the only one I found.
P.S .Though according to the formula 3° is about 5 in but Beech Lane device marks anything over 1 in orange and over 3 red (as in level of trouble).
And though I do have levelling blocks (wedges) for correction it is often uneven both front to back and side to side ,so it is always something that could not be corrected further.
