I wonder if anyone has used ones these in place of the Alko lock insert. I have great difficulty lining up the Alko receiver when I bring my caravan home and have just discovered that the Excalibur fits the Alko receiver. The Alko lock insert only fits half of the spaces on my 2019 Swift Eccles wheel but the Excalibur appears to fit in all of them which would make life easier.

Are you sure about that?
I don't have an Excalibur but looking at the manual it appears to come with it's own receiver which has to be positioned behind the wheel each time you use the lock.
I use a Nemesis Ultra which is easy to fit (initial fitting requires the replacement of a wheel bolt) but same comment about checking insurance applies.

Posted on 22/12/2021 08:17 by DavidRCYes, I've now seen the video. If I'd known that I may have bought the Excalibur rather than the Nemesis but it looks as though there is still a need to line up the wheel with the receiver which is not necessary with the Nemesis.
