Hi, i fitted my new alko to my new(to us) caravan at weekend, i reckon it took me about 10 minutes!!, i could find no mention for the spring clip and found no where to put it so just followed the instructions.

Don't forgot to use the pin to knock the back bolt out, apparently its a nightmare if you forget and the damper springs back.

Also make sure you put push the stabiliser handle down fully when you are towing, i pulled up twice and found the handle up, then made sure i pushed the handle down as afr as i could, travelled home 70 miles with no problems.

yes its possible that the handle of the brake is pushing it up on braking and welcome

Please find a list of problems below related to your enquiry: Stabiliser arms keep coming up during travel. My handbrake handle keeps coming up when travelling.

on the same sort of theme, mine makes a knocking noise particular at low speed,not a creaking but a definite knock like theres alot of play in the coupling.the van damper is fine, no jerkiness on braking or setting off just a definite clunk/knock that transmits through the towbar.

also noticed alot of scoring on the towball . particularly the side closest to the rear of the car.

welcome if it keeps doing it you need to buy one of these removable ones.
