Andersen Levelling Chocks
(Preview)
I have a Knaus Skywave Motor Home. I started with a pair of yellow ramps as sold by BCF etc but found I often had to hold the vehicle on the ramps with the handbrake, which then creaked and groaned as we moved about inside. Also using chocks on the ramps is a bit dangerous for my wife if she is not quick enough!...
