My caravan has a motor mover and so to rotate the wheels I need a jack that can slide under the motor mover units each side. My standard car jack is clearly not up to the job. I have seen a wide range of jacks on the internet but not sure which would be the best (and hopefully the lightest) to get.
Any ideas would be most welcome

I bought a cheap trolley jack from Machine Mart & while it's not the best jack in the world, it works & it will be better than nothing in the event I want to change a tyre

I've been looking at jacks as we have exactly the same problem looming next month when our new Delta arrives.
I'm as yet to find what could be classed as a lightweight trolley jack and I'd love you all to point me in the right direction of one, or comment on the one below:

What's the situation with the Purple Line Kojack, I'd been recommended this product by the workshop manager at our caravan dealer.
An alternative is lock n level but that's pricey.
Also what do you do with a trolley jack when on a grass pitch?

A bit more research has suggested there are a lot of online retailers apparently doing the same jack, but painted in their own colours.

This can also be bought as a Sealey branded jack.
