Caravan jack

Hiya folks, thanks for all the replies. Following the suggestions, I’m liking the look of the ‘Kojack’. Having brackets fitted to the chassis seems a more elegant solution. I’m normally a bit wary of bottle jacks, because of the small footprint/contact area, but in this case the brackets give a positive location. Thanks again 👍

Our spare wheel is under the bed.

I would agree with MMs opinion of the supplied Alko jack and it's ability to lift a fully loaded twin axle van, though ours is the side lift model.  Ours is also somewhere in the garage and I use a 2 tonne trolley jack purchased many years back from Lidl.

I have used it frequently on site and in our driveway, however, if out on the road, I would also call on our breakdown service to come and change the wheel, and have done so once in 21 years.

For quite a few years we used an AlKo side lift jack on at least two caravans. It was used quite a bit as I had a spare set of wheels for the winter when it was standing for a couple of months. It worked perfectly well for me albeit that they were single axle caravans.

The max weight lift on the Alko side lift scissor Jack is 1600kg

In fairness I don't want to lift all the caravan .... just one side of it.

Off to dig the jack out & have a look!  🤣

You did say to lift 1800kg

Max weight of the scissor jack is 1.5 tonnes which should be enough to lift one side ..... my trolly jack for my car has a max lift of 1800kg  but I only need to lift one corner to change a wheel

I did  ..... but you know what I meant 😋

You should know when posting on here ,that there is always some one to pick up on a post for what ever their "odd"reasoning
