These are the accessories we use when arriving at site and need to level the van and or block up underneath the stabiliser legs. They are very basic and cost effective and I have been using them for a couple of years with good results.

Sep, thanks for the advice. We are just back from two weeks away and realise I need a good set of wheel chocks. I was at a park that wasn't level and the van moved on me while setting up. Not dangerous but made me think. The chocks we have are too small and narrow and I want bigger stronger ones. Also those stacking blocks you have seem good stuff, think I'll get some. I use wooden cut off pieces like you have, but sometimes you need a bit more height. Also I agree that the stepped levelling ramps are not as good as they seem. You almost never obtain level when the wheel is on a flat section. Cheers.

The rubber type chocks are probably the strongest and you can get them in different sizes but I would suggest the solid ones not the one with the hole in the middle. I think the hole maybe a weight saving measure and this type (with the hole) deform slightly when using them with a leveling ramp and the weight of the wheel goes back onto the chock. Thanks for your comment. Cheers!

Another useful episode Sep. We too use the red ramps for levelling, and carry hardwood timber blocks for the stabiliser legs. Those stackable plastic pads look the goods. My wife reckons we are off to Supercheap tomorrow to get some 😂 Also the tip about releasing the car handbrake before disconnecting the van is an interesting idea. We have struggled a few times with the towball not releasing. I always learn something from your presentations. You are one bloke I hope to meet on the road someday so I can buy you a beer 🍻

Generally speaking when you are using a ramp and you place the chock behind the wheel on the ramp then release your van hitch from the car the van wheel moves back slightly onto the wheel chock. So basically by releasing the car and van handbrake before unhitching you are allowing the van and car to move back as the van rests on the chock, taking the pressure off the hitch. I do this every time before unhitching where the ground permits. Really appreciate your comment and I won’t say no to that beer. Cheers!
