I have the same problem. I also need a No 2 lozenge for the Hawk wheels on my Coachman. I have been outbid a couple of times on ebay but Ill keep trying. There are other wheel locks on the market, that look equally secure, work in the same way at much less than the incredibly overpriced alko. CC insurance only gives discount on the Alko for some reason, also mine is a new van, and alko have fitted a secutity bolt through the receiver that requires a special trool to remove which they only supply when you register the alko product which I resent. I paid a lot of money for my new van and ALKO ARE TELLING ME I CANNOT USE MY PURCHAS AS I WISH! iT ALSO LOOKS LIKE cc ARE IN COLUSION WITH THEM!! I find all Alko products indefensably over priced.
------------- there are 10 types of people in this world, those who understand binary and those who don't.
Caravan club gave me the discount on ours and there not Alko came with the new van as standard!! Ours is a new elddis but just thought it is not Alko chassis may be the reason
' CC insurance only gives discount on the Alko for some reason, also mine is a new van, and alko have fitted a secutity bolt through the receiver that requires a special trool to remove which they only supply when you register the alko product which I resent.'
Alko won a court case against Bulldog and claim they are going to stop using the grub screw.
“As a result of this successful action, AL-KO will now no longer fit the grub screw into the AL-KO Secure Receiver for future orders although some existing stock of caravans will still have the grub screw inserted”.

Brian - thanks, looks like if any come up on eBay in the next few days we will be both bidding :)
You can get them from Al-Ko, have a look on their website for contact details. You need a lozenge. I think they're pretty easy to change, they seem to be held in place by a large Circlip. http://www.al-ko.co.uk/alko-secure-listing_7.asp I've found them very helpful.
