Re: [a/s] Levelers



Verna,

I thought of getting those "orange" blocks and still might, but I've been
using the same old pressure-treated 2X8s and 5/4X8s for 10+ years.  I've
lost a few and have replenished my supply by visiting home-building
construction sites off and on.

For chocking the wheels so the trailer doesn't move, I use 2-4X4s with an
angle cut on each end.  This allows me to slide one in between 2 wheels and
the trailer won't roll around.  I tinkered with the cuts on these, starting
out too long and cutting until they fit nice and snug.  I use 2 of
these...one on each side.  I guess because of earthquakes? (;>)~

I bought those stainless and fiber adjustable chocks that you lock in place
by turning a removable handle until tight.  I think they are more bother
than anything else.  IMHO !
