Pulled my rear wheel off to inspect condition of leak (suspect hub seal) yesterday and i used some large 'mine spec ' wheel chocks. Glad i did. Just wondering if this is a thing that people carry in the defers as standard kit. I will try to find some fold up jobbies.

Paul, when you do the hub seals use part # RTC3511, not the ones specced for your model (if you didn't already know that :D)

The RTC3511 ones are so much better than anything else used over the years as they are double lipped and spring energised.
They keep water out as well as oil in (if you convert to oil lubed bearings)

As for chocks, I used to have a couple of Toyota fold up ones, but they've disappeared over the years.
