Hi Mel

I used the standard jockey wheel Eurotech Mover (the cream one) until a couple of weeks ago, when I fitted one of the fixed axle type Powrwheel movers.

I had no problems with the Eurotech, it revolutionised hitching the caravan up. We have a slope to our drive, I had to rely on the wife to help hitching, unhitching and getting up the drive was harder and usually involved neighbours as well.

With the Eurotech, its easy, one handed operation, it likes a bit of weight on the jockey wheel in the wet as the tyre slips a little at the top of the drive, but it is so much better than pushing.

I bought mine off Ebay, its just a matter of looking for the right one.

We have a eurotech mover that we have used for the past 5 years with our caravan with no problems. We used it to move the van up some quite steep ramps to get it onto a hardstanding at the side of the house.

we are getting a new van this tuesday and will be selling ours, as our new caravn has a built in motor mover so we wont be needing it anymore.
