Since we’re on the subject of chocks, I thought I’d throw out my chocking method that only requires the cheapy $5 plastic jobs.
When I back into a site, I get out and put one chock on the back side of the left and right tire. I then back slightly onto the chocks and set the parking brake. I get out again and set the other two chocks in front of the tire and go back and release the parking brake. Now, I’m more or less pre-loaded on my chocks. With the front landing gear and the rear stabilizers down, we don’t get any undesirable movement.
HTH,
Ken
