Try eBay, when you say you have the insert, which bit do you mean, it's normally the red (lozenge) which would mean you only need a lock kit

I have the red lozenge and the widget and lock that goes in it, it’s the bit that goes behind the wheel I need.

That's part of the wheel assembly, it's only on the wheel on the door side, can't see how it can be removed

It's about the 1-2 o,clock position, is the wheel hiding it, what caravan is it for, do you have alloy wheels,

I have alloy wheels but no AL-KO socket to put the bolt into. The caravan is a Sterling Europa 550, it has an AL-KO chassis.

So I found it under swift it's a no 25 insert so you should have a receiver as I said it shows that it is on the hub, if it's not there then the only explanation is that it's been broken off in a theift

So I have the number 25 insert and lock, what I don’t have is the bit behind the wheel, I understand that AL-KO approved dealers can fit them, for instance if you buy a new caravan and request that as an extra, saying that, surely a caravan breaker would have AL-KO chassis’s with one fitted that could be removed.

I believe you will find that it was only Dealer Special models that were factory fitted and came with the complete wheel clamp and lock as our Dealer Special was.

A colleague had this exact same issue with his second user van. Despite the van having the later chassis, alloy's etc., the receiver simply wasn't part of the original spec unless specified as an option at point of order.
Both he and looked into the availability of the receiver, which does fundamentally bolt on, but it seems the supply to the public has been restricted and they're now only available through a dealer fit.

I think maybe a search through breakers might be the most cost effective option for you.
