The Campa was an early model around the early eighties and I would have thought that it had Indispension suspension units rather than an Alko axle. We had a mid eighties Conway Colt with independent suspension and the wheel bearings were fairly standard bearings which can be found at your local bearing supplier or on ebay etc. The bearing part numbers should be stamped on the bearing eg 44643L 44610.

Ruckm.typ 400 = type 400, presumably ruckm is coupling or chassis, I'll look it up

A 1094 1137 = I think this is the date and serial number, A = Alko, 1094 = October 1994, 1137 = serial number or build date


Achslast 450 = axle load 450kg

Of course I may be totally wrong with my ideas on dating and numbering as the Conway Campa was produced around 1980-84.

Thanks Rob. I thought of date but the trailer was built in 83. I did wonder about bearing numbers but no cross reference to them. I will have to remove one set to see if they have a stamp mark

Ruckm. has defeated my schoolboy language skills, ruck means back but I have no idea what ruckm is an abbreviation of.

Have you tried the Alko website? 1983 fits with a Campa so it looks like my date code idea is totally wrong, perhaps that's just a batch number or similar.
