i recently picked up a 68 puck and looking to replace the wheel on my tongue jack, only because its clearly not correct.. its worn out, axle/pin is to small and the wheel is clearly to small..

anyone have a good replacement source online?

( i realize there are many chinese wheels on amazon and the like)

I'm guessing you mean the jockey wheel, I've never heard it called a tongue jack.
Replacement wheels should be readily available at your local camping and caravan shop, or trailer shop. If not I'd get one off e-bay. It may be worthwhile replacing everything as they are fairly cheap, especially second hand.

Measure the diameter of the jockey wheel stem, something like 48mm and you can get a complete new one for around £25. Loads on eBay.

What size is the hole diameter on the forks? I have an original Eriba axle pin you are welcome to have for free - if it fits!

The pin I have is 20mm diameter. And 84mm long overall - 80mm to the bottom of the retaining lug.

Hi Carl,
I've tried to send you a PM with my contact email - not sure if I can get one as you are new... If no message, then we'll have to work out another way to message, without putting our details in clear
