I got an Open Box set of four for $7 or so at the Harbor Freight warehouse in Dillon, SC. Just happened to be on I-95 returning home from Florida and decided to stop in. Also a $75 belt/disc sander that had been returned for $25. But I sure wouldn't drive there just hoping for a deal like that.

And yes, the chocks had a really strong aroma.

To chock or not to chock

I have a single axle - a 2019 rPod-179 that I tow with a 2020 RAM Classic 1500. The hitch ball top sticks up at about 30" off the pavement when I elevate the hitch to finally disengage the trailer from the hitch. I automatically chock front and back of each TT wheel before I start. To level front to back, I lower the tongue with the electric jack. "There ain't no way" I would NOT use chocks to accomplish this for none other than personal safety. Yes, it IS worth the bother. The trailer stays put - with confidence.

Just my 2˘ on the levelers - I bought these on Amazon a couple months ago and I'm very happy with them. Seem stouter than the Anderson blocks and cost a little less.
