Does anyone know the answer to what cordless drill will lift my 1184kg van as Towsure referred me to Millenco and they don't know. Have tried three 18v cordless and two from the mains with no success. Do not know any torque capabilities of any of these drills. I am on the verge of sending it back but it was a present from my wife and I don't want to offend her.

Any cordless drill will 'fit' it's the socket that you put on the end of it!

I'm not sure what you mean by 'lift' either. These things are steadies, not jacks.

No drill will lift a caravan with a Milenco leveller (or any other similar type), try turning the lifting bolt with a spanner and you will see why!

Try a hand held ratchet spanner instead.

Sorry Wingsy, i should have read it more carefullly!

The Lockloy caravan leveller (made by Millenco) is supplied by Towsure with a drill attachment for easy use. It is even difficult to lift with a ratchet spanner. I have just found a ''Buy Comparison'' on the product in the Caravan Club magazine issued in August which seems unfavorable. But going back to my original question, it must be possible with a drill otherwise it is not fit for the purpose it was sold for. So I need to know about ''Torque'' on cordless drills from you guys out there as Towsure don't know and Milenco don't know either. I really want this product to work and I am prepared to buy a new drill, but don't want to get the wrong one.
