Re: [VACList] ratchet driven jockey wheel for caravans and trailers



Interesting concept. I have one of the old fashioned ones. We always called
it a 'walker'. It also slipped on to the tongue jack post and had 2 pads and
a spot to insert a pole. Rather nice on a level driveway, but it does take a
while if you are trying to turn the trailer around 180 degrees! It works
fine with a single axle trailer, but when my parents tried it with their new
heavier double axle it didn't work so hot.
