Using Wheel Chocks on 2011 Airstream Sport 22 Foot Trailer
Published 09/27/2017
Question:
Hi, We just got a 2011 Airstream Sport 22foot FB. It came with everything, including a like new set of wheel chocks. Is it adequate to chock front and back on one side, or do I need another set to do both sides? Im also reading about setting your trailer buy pulling up on the front chock, placing the rear one and letting the trailer settle back against the rear one. Is that a technique you recommend? Thanks,

Expert Reply:
When using traditional wheel chocks like the FloTool # FT11930MI, I recommend using them on both sides of the trailer. This will be the safest option, especially if you park on a slight grade. Using wheel chocks on both sides of the trailer will also help to further stabilize it when at a camp.
The method you mentioned in your question will do a nice job of wedging the chocks into place on your trailer tires. As long as they are set to prevent unexpected movement on the Airstream, they will do their job perfectly.
