Can anyone suggest where I might be able to purchase a used Alko secure lock with the insert (no 20) to suit our new Bailey Provence. We would like to get one before collecting the new van but don't have the cash to pay £240 for a new one at the moment!! Have tried ebay but none on there......any ideas? Bailey are doing some deals on some of the other inserts but not the number 20 sadley!
Is the No. 20 a stabiliser or hitch lock you need? At £240 it sound more like the complete stabiliser. It may help if you could provide a link with a photo.

It's the red lozenge for the Alko Secure Wheel lock. I reckon fleabay is probably your only hope unless someone on here has got fed up with fitting theirs and gone back to a wheel clamp.

I agree keep a close eye on ebay. We had one of the alko locks on our GT60 and just checked several times a day and one appeared. I asked the seller if he had a buy it now price and got it for £50, so if you find one dont just let auction run without asking. I've also seen them advertised in Practical Caravan mag, CC website and Preloved.
Good luck.

I was confused as the OP didn't actually say it was a wheel clamp. When the name Alko was used I automatically thought of a stabiliser or hitch lock. I have steel rimmed wheels on my caravan so I'm not familiar with Alko wheel clamps at all.
Cheers everyone, looks like fleabay is the best bet then and will just have to keep looking. I have been checking the last 3 weeks but it seems every size is coming up except for the one we want. Its not urgent as we do have a wheel clamp already but I like the Alko secure as its small and lightweight compared to the current clamp and also means we get some discount off the insurance with the CC!
Thanks Tango, £125 is not a bad price but they are going on ebay for around £70- £80 so may have to wait for one to come on there or pre-loved.....having just brought the van we need to save every pound at the moment
