Tire change

Will the Andersen leveling chocks accomplish the same thing by using one?

Tire change

Almost... the Anderson levelers don’t quite get the tire high enough to pull off. If you use a bottle or scissor jack to raise another inch or two you can do it in a pinch (as me how I know [emoji4]

Orange or yellow lego blocks are a little easier...

I’ve never understood the need to carry a dedicated tire changing ramp....

I have replaced several blowouts using the Anderson device. It is taller than the levellers, which I also use.

Bought the Trailer Aid Plus. It works...but that is all I can say about it. The extra rubber they add to the Trailer Aid to make it a "Plus" has a horrible burnt rubber smell. I ended up having to put the thing in a huge zip lock bag to keep the smell contained. When I first bought it, I didn't notice the smell and put it unbagged in the storage compartment. It didn't take long for the smell to make it into the trailer.

+1 on the “Trailer Aid Plus”, I had to use mine on our first AS journey and it, combined with my Dewalt 1/2” cordless impact driver made the tire change a quick and easy job. (I’ve never noticed any odor but I transport all of my gear in the bed of our truck.)
