Hi everyone i'm tom from mortons on the
move and welcome to road gear reviews
today we're taking a look at the
X- Chocks from BL RV products
stay tuned
the X Chock is a mechanical Chock
designed to work with tandem axle
trailers .... it works bike expanding out
against the tires and locking them
together so they cannot turn
it's designed to work on trailers and
rvs and you're typically going to have
two of them one for each side of the
trailer ... so in the boxes you get one
X chock and one three quarter inch
ratchet designed to sit on top of the
controls the contraction and expansion
of the chalk so this chalk is designed
to work with tires that are up to 10
inches apart or as close as one and
three-eighths inches together..... i have
seen it be attempted to be used on
tires that are really close together
before and I'd say that probably two
inches is about as close as they can be
and still use this function properly
The chock is relatively lightweight and has
this convenient handle that you can
easily carry it around with and put it
in between your tires with
it is made out of steel but it does have a
rust preventative coating on it and
although this one's brand-new we have
been using ours for over a year and we
don't see any rust on the chock....... a neat
feature of this is that it is lockable
when their expanded against the tires
you can put a padlock through the hole
on the end and it will prevent this from
being rotated and removed from your
trailer as opposed to other chalks out
there this is designed to work with the
natural movement of the tires instead of
against them and the benefit that gives
you is that it locks the tires a hundred
percent in place and they cannot move
and what it what it does for you is it
adds a lot of stability to an RV it
prevents forward and backward movement
that you could normally get in tires
even if you've got them chocked real
tight you're still going to have a
little bit of movement and tired and
this completely lock them up and
prevents that
that being said this is not intended to
act as a parking break to keep your RV
or trailer from rolling away it
specifically states that in the
literature as well.... the intended use of
these chocks is to place them between
your wheels once you've got your trailer
level and
set up in its appropriate place then it
will provide all the extra stabilization
that you wouldn't have without them we
have found these extremely easy-to-use
we expand them to the size of our tires
and we typically don't have to even move
them that much once we've got them set
up we just loosen them up a little bit
take them out of the tires put them away
and then we're at our next location we
can easily place them back into the
tires and tighten them up with only a
few cranks and the trailer is locked up
and very stable we've been using the
chock for over a year and they make a
noticeable difference before we had them
we didn't know we're missing but once
we've we've got them if we forget to put
them in
you definitely notice that they're not there
these chocks are easy to use and
they feel really well-built they've held
up and all the use that we've put them
through and they're also made right here
in the USA...... one drawback to these chocks
is that you can see there's a lot of moving
parts on here and that poses a bit of a
pinch point hazard if you're cranking
these down all these are starting to
move and if you get your finger in the
wrong spot that could really hurt
there's even a warning for pinch points
right on the handle so you gotta be
careful when you them another thing you
want to consider is that the the screw
in here that actually draws these up and
down needs to be kept grease it comes
with some grease on it and that could be
a drawback if you want to throw it in
your car you could get grease on your
carpet or something..... we put them in the
back of our truck so it's not really a
problem........ like i said earlier this extends
out to 10 inches but they do make a
model extends out to 17 inches for wider
space tires ........ be sure to take a look at
the description below for links of where
you can purchase these chocks.......... i'm tom
