Seems a bit of an odd size at 114mm, would this one not fit at 110mm

The spindle actually measures 110mm. from the edge of the two flanges to the end of the tube so maybe it is the correct spindle I'm looking for. I will give them a ring tomorrow just to confirm that it is the correct one but many thanks for your reply, it's much appreciated as I didn't think anyone would find one.



EDIT: I have just e-mailed them with the corresponding link with the relative dimensions so hopefully they will e-mail me with confirmation if the dimension are identical.
Many thanks and will post back with the results.

Ok no problem, if all else fails I'm sure you can lash one up from some stainless 20mm tube with a hole drilled at each end

Well, no reply whatsoever from Trailertek.com regarding my query so gave them a ring and spoke to the receptionist. She said that they will eventually reply but to me that's not good business so decided to abort from buying from them on and ordered a spindle 110mm. long from Abergavenny Caravans on Ebay. Fingers crossed it should be the right one but anyway, thanks Big Roy for your help. Much appreciated.

Let me know if it fits, i could make you one to any size.

Probably be away for a few days soon though, but not long. Unless my sore throat,hot cold flushes and headaches turns into something much worse.

When I had a pneumatic tyre on my jockey wheel I drilled the split pin hole out slightly and replaced it with an "R" clip. I also found it hard to access the valve so this made it easier to slip the wheel off and pump it up when needed.
Just a thought, if the pneumatic wheel was fitted to a jockey wheel which was originally designed for a solid tyre, the mounting flanges may have been prized open slightly to take the pneumatic tyre which are a bit wider than the solid wheels.
