I use them with the Keystone Bullet TT Wide Track. .

I use them with the Keystone Bullet TT Wide Track. The product works very well. I was hoping to use these as a replacement for sanding chalk (wedge shape), but the product documentation says they cannot be used as a disposable chalk solution. However, they had that extra stability that really boosted the four corner jacks. Bought a pair and have been using them for about a year.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Could have gone for the newer one

Does the job: tools and equipment

This is the second one I've bought. After my pendant spun and the tongue fell out of the block of wood, it was decided that one wasn't enough and was needed for the other side as well. The size is suitable for my widely spaced two-axle trailer. As adding a second X-Chock pendant is much more stable and I don't worry about changing it again. I would recommend them to anyone with no problem, but I would advise you to buy two, one for each side.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
  • Some difficulties

Super strong, good for immobilizers and wheel chocks

Just bought two of these and used them for the first time last weekend. We are new to the camping world and the first few times I noticed our camper trailer wheels rocking back and forth; Problem solved, nice and safe and appears to be very well made. We still use traditional wheel chocks as these are not intended to be a replacement for wheel chocks but to stabilize the caravan and indeed they are, highly recommended. 14" wheel clearance.

Pros
  • Heavy duty construction
Cons
  • Only available in black

X-shaped pads. Better than regular pads.

Easy setup. Comes with a ratchet wrench for each pad, which comes in handy but is slow to expand the pads. These extended versions are well suited for WIDE track widths or wider wheelbases. I have a 14 inch spacing between the tire contact points. They grab and pull pretty well. I wouldn't recommend just using one, add a regular wedge if possible. So you can drive up the slope with peace of mind.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Almost never

Easy to use for tools and gear

I don't know if I'm doing anything wrong or if a hiker should feel that way. After installation, I still feel a lot of movement in the camper. I can say I don't think I misadjusted pad x, I can see the tire tread deforming a bit from the pressure. I wonder if it's his wife and her lumbering gait that's making him cringe? I only had one too. I bought 2 packs of Revain but only one came. A few months later I had to cancel and re-order the second one. If you turn them both on, some sort of tremorโ€ฆ

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Not as thick as other pickaxes

Love these immobilizer and wheel pad items

Love these. I bought these to use with my RV stabilizer bushings instead. After reading the reviews and meeting a few people who had bought them, I went ahead and bought two of them. All the instructions say only one is needed, but after reading the reviews I decided two is better. Also, reviews indicated that they were difficult to open on first use. With that in mind, I've opened mine up to make sure I don't have any issues camping. I'm glad I did, they were moderately difficult to openโ€ฆ

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Weight
