Leveling a 36G Journey

Is there anyway to figure out how much you will have to put underneath your tire to get it level. I am talking about your level is a bubble off and you need to raise the right rear up.

Get a carpenter's level. For this example, let us assume it is a 48" long level. Measure how far off the floor the aft end of the level is to read centered bubble, and call that value "H".
The wheelbase of a 2000 Journey 36G = 228"
Calculate the amount of lift you will need:
228" ÷ 48" × H = Lift Needed to Level
Example for a ¾" value of "H":
228" ÷ 48" × ¾" = 3½"

will this throw my front to rear level off? It's pretty much level front to rear now.

If your Journey is level fore-to-aft, but is listing side-to-side by a small amount, you can correct that list by blocking just under that one side of the dualies. For larger amounts of list, you will need to block the steer wheel on that side too.
You may just have to experiment a little to see how it goes.
The Track of your Journey is 96", so you can do the Carpenter's Level calculation for side-to-side as well. In this example, let us assume the Level is only 24" long:
96" ÷ 24" × H = Lift Needed to Level side-to-side
