Thumbs up for Anderson leveler.
Our first official trip out with the new 29.5BHOK and the Anderson Levelers worked flawlessly, they are so easy to use. I was hoping my Level Mate Pro would arrive in time for this trip but it showed up the day after we left home. I'm really looking forward to using these two tools together.

Thanks for the review, I have two new Anderson levelers and two X-Chocks that have yet to be used on our new TT. Do the X-Chocks lock it all down tight eliminating most of the trailer movement?

I bought the xchock just because I was not sure if I would run into a situation where I would need to back the trailer all the way up onto the 4 inch mark of the Anderson leveler. If you back all the way up on it I was afraid of the camper shifting enough to roll off the back side of the block. It is supposed to stop movement and I think it did that, but I used it just for piece of mind.

I have those on my 29.5BHOK too. No, they don't remove much of the movement. I am installing JT Strong Arms on mine in the next couple of weeks.

Do the JT Strong Arms require you to move the spare tire?

Don't know yet. If it does I will relocate the spare to the back of the trailer.

The JT strong arms did not really interfere with the up front spare. I just lowered the spare a little, installed the arms, then cranked it back up. It sits a little further back (about an inch) but rides there just fine.
The JT Strong Arms perform as advertised. Gets rid of 90% of the trailer movement and easy to use. Screw jacks might be better (like 6 of them), but, not as easy to set up.

No, had not heard of that tool. I am always bending over anyway during setup. I do use an open end wrench on the T handles to give a little more leverage.

I have trouble using my X Chocks with the Anderson levelers. I wind up not using the chock on the leveler side because of clearance issues.
