    truck bed wheel chock mount

    didn't want to bolt the wheel chock down in my truck bed. Too much of a PITA when I guy needs to remove it so the truck can do other work.

    So I fabricated a mount to the gooseneck hitch. Quick release fellas:

    Nice. I used the same Harbor Freight chock, and built a heavily reinforced wooden base for it, so I can throw it in the back of a pickup like my old Dakota, or in the back of a U-Haul trailer when I traded the truck in for my RAV4.

    How did it hold up? Seems pretty well built for Harbor Freight stuff.

    I gave the plywood route much consideration. This seemed easier to store when not in use and works out in my case since there's already a hitch there.
