TRAIL-A-MATE MKII Hydraulic Jockey Wheel Jack

A hydraulic caravan jack designed to lift larger, heavier vans.

Designed to raise bigger and larger caravans than our original Trail-A-Mate Jockey Wheel/Jack, the Trail-A-Mate MkII is a hydraulic caravan jack. The following are the MkII's salient characteristics:

WLL 1,500 kg / ATM 3,500 kg is the capability.
Easy to Use: Because it is hydraulic, operating it requires relatively little effort.
Safety: Completely conforms to Australia's required safety requirements (2693:2007).

As you can see below, it has a wide range of functions and applications, including food vans, trailers, horse floats, and camping. The Australia Defence Force even uses it; to securely level a truck carrying a telescope on uneven terrain, four Trail-A-Mates are placed on each corner of the vehicle. It is a very adaptable product.

We have spent years improving and polishing the Trail-A-Mate jacks to make them as safe and user-friendly as possible, in addition to their adaptability. We collaborated with the Australian government prior to 2007 in order to help them implement a mandatory safety standard for trailer and caravan jacks.

FAQs:

Can Trail-A-Mate MKII be fitted to my caravan?

Yes, you can fit a Trail-A-Mate MkII to your caravan and it can be used as a jockey stand. We have developed our own 60mm clamp to facilitate this, however this jack does not come with a wheel, only a flat base plate.

Can the brackets for the jacking point be fitted to my caravan or trailer?

Yes, almost all caravans built over recent years have a cross-member at the rear of the axles strong enough to accommodate the brackets, which must be welded on. However, over the last couple of years, the majority of caravan manufacturers have fitted the brackets which create the jacking points for Trail-A-Mate as standard equipment.

If I purchase a Trail-A-Mate MkII with the optional 60mm clamp so I can use it as a jockey stand, do I need to buy a separate Jack?

No, the Trail-A-Mate MkII is designed to be used as both a jockey stand and a jack, minimizing the need to carry unnecessary equipment on holidays with you.

My caravan has an ATM of 3500kg fully loaded, can I still use the Trail-A-Mate MkII?

Yes, Trail-A-Mate has a Working Load Limit of 1,500kg. When you are jacking the caravan using a Trail-A-Mate, you are not lifting the entire weight of the caravan, you are lifting approximately 1/3 or less of the vehicle weight at any of the jacking points.

If I get a flat tire, will I still have to climb underneath the caravan to jack it up?

No, Trail-A-Mate is designed so that it is operated from a standing position, using a minimum amount of effort, preventing you from having to climb underneath your van, making it not only easier, but a much safer option.

How high will my Trail-A-Mate MkII lift fully extended?

The Trail-A-Mate has the capacity with the base plate fitted, to lift from as low as 6 inches (150mm) above the ground to a height of 20 inches (500mm) in one straight lift.

I have limited mechanical knowledge, What happens if something goes wrong with my Trail-A-Mate?

Trail-A-Mate has been designed so that even a person with a very limited knowledge of hydraulics could repair the unit by following some very basic instructions.
