Solid...solid as a rock

[karrun]

I guess I don't get the advantage of them. I don't notice much movement in our roo. Maybe I'll change my time over time, but for now I don't feel the "rock and roll".

Do those Walmart Jacks work good for the side to side movement?
When kids are in back bunk we get a lot of side to side movement. Have a pair of X chocks

[OBX Forever]

We bought extra large x-chocks but haven't used them. We will camp this evening for the weekend and will use one for the first time. We had to use the orange blocks on one side to raise the tires to level our TT so we won't be able to use a second x-chock.

[RooVader]

Why can't you use the second chock? It should not matter if it is parked on blocks???

[OBX Forever]

I can? I didn't know. I will test that tonight.

[RedStick]

I've used the x chocks when raised using the Lego blocks no problem.

Added security in my view. The tires would be hard pressed to roll with both installed.

Exactly, I like the chock even more when i am on legos.

One thing I added was the Lego blocks under the steps. Now every time someone comes in or out, I get no more rocking either. CW sells the step jacks, but the Lego blocks work even better because they are wider and cover more area on the bottom of the step.
Just saying.

By the way, wouldn't leave home without my X chocks. Love them!

Just bought a two pack at CW for $88 on sale. Don't know how long the sale is on for.

Legos under the stairs??? Brilliant!

I have used the screw jacks they helped some but still rocked side to side with the roo 233s I made some outrigger style stablizers out of pt 4x4,s 2 sets . man what a difference really took almost all of rocking it out just a little bounce in the floor left working on that now

So how did you secure them? (Trailer and ground)

[dado39]

The nothed end goes on the bottom of the I beam frame angle end on the ground I put one set in front of axle's on the other set towards the back of the camper then tighten ratchet straps .

Right before we got our Roo in late July, CW had the two pack on sale for $80 something, and I picked up a set (thinking that was a good deal) when I was in the store getting our sewer hoses and such that we were gonna need. Got to the register and the cashier picks up the x-chocks box, hands it back to me and says, "would you kindly put that back?" and gives me a wink. I reluctantly took it from her back to it's spot in the aisle, and when I returned, she had 2 singles from the endcap of the same aisle (that I somehow missed) which was full of the singles on sale for $35~ish.
I was grateful for that cashier.
So far we have only used one, but noticed a big improvement in wiggle-jiggle with just one, so I think two will be great.
