Keith N Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 HI wonder if any one can advise me , i have just bought a" Festnight Aluminium Motorised Jockey Wheel Transporting Storage Trailer Mover 12 V 350 W" and and just inquiring if this can be kept as the "Jockey Wheel" on a permanent bases ( ie when being towed) or does it need changing each time i hook up ? Many thanks Keith ( New member ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest pelmetman Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Just googled it ;-) .......... I'm no expert.......but assuming it pulls up into the A frame as high as the standard jockey wheel does, then I don't see a problem :-| .............. That said, I've managed to rip off a bog standard jockey wheel on my box trailer, due the slope on the MIL's drive 8-) ........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keithl Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 But how much does it weigh? It's weight will bear almost directly on the tow hitch so be careful not to exceed your tow cars hitch limit. Keith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ocsid Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 It will be very interesting to know if it does what it is sold to do. Experience from yesteryear was my hitch tractor worked fine with my then 1100kg van on my 1:14 incline tarmac drive, but was a nightmare braking when I moved up to a 1700 kg van or even the lighter van also if it ran off the drive onto the lawn.
