For anyone tired of winding a jockey wheel to hitch and unhitch a heavy trailer, this is the perfect solution!
It is a hydraulic jockey wheel which converts into a hydraulic jack. That means no more straining and winding; any trailer, caravan or horsebox hitch can be easily raised using a lever action with a detatchable jack handle, and lowered with the turn of a release valve.
It can either be permanently fitted to a trailer as a direct replacement to an existing 48mm jockey wheel unit or it can be bolted to the trailer A-frame in addition to the existing jockey wheel, (see the picture with it permanently attached to the A-frame of my very heavy american race trailer). It can also be used as a jack, to change wheels, level a trailer etc.
This is a fantastic product which makes raising & lowering any trailer almost effortless and economically converts a flatbed trailer into a tiltbed. Gone are the days of strained backs, bashed knuckles, bent & filthy jockey wheels that don't work!
It is capable of easily lifting 1 ton (1,000 kg) and jacks up to 380mm (15 inches)high.
The unit is brand new in a box & the kit includes the hydraulic trailer jack on a shaft with interchangable jockey wheel and foot plate, lifting handle, jacking point clamp for lifting the side of a trailer and an instruction booklet.
