This Crusader 48mm Jumbo Jockey Assembly provides reliable support when hitching and unhitching caravans, trailers and horseboxes. With a 150kg static load capacity and 130cm adjustable length, it handles heavier touring caravans and twin-axle setups where standard jockey wheels fall short. The 48mm diameter stem fits most modern caravans manufactured in the last 15 years, though you'll need to check your existing clamp fitting before ordering. The pneumatic tyre measures 260mm x 80mm, which rolls smoothly over gravel and uneven surfaces when manoeuvring into storage or repositioning on site.

Caravan owners who regularly move their outfits on soft ground or grass pitches appreciate the larger wheel diameter. The pneumatic tyre absorbs bumps better than solid rubber alternatives, making it easier to move a caravan single-handed across rougher terrain. At 3.6kg total weight, it's manageable to lift when needed but substantial enough to feel secure under load. The plastic wheel construction keeps costs down whilst the pneumatic tyre does the heavy lifting for grip and cushioning.

One consideration is that pneumatic tyres need occasional pressure checks, unlike solid wheels that are genuinely fit-and-forget. The wheel measures approximately 230mm diameter by 60mm thick at the hub, with the inflated tyre bringing the total to around 260mm x 80mm. This assembly works with standard 48mm clamp brackets found on Bailey, Swift, Elddis and most mainstream caravan brands. If you're replacing an older 34mm stem jockey wheel, you'll also need to upgrade the clamp fitting.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size clamp bracket do I need for this 48mm jockey wheel?
This jockey wheel requires a 48mm diameter clamp bracket, which is the standard fitting on most caravans built from 2010 onwards including Bailey, Swift, Elddis, Lunar and Coachman models. If your caravan currently has a 34mm jockey wheel, you'll need to replace the entire clamp bracket assembly as the smaller clamp won't safely hold the larger 48mm stem.
How does the 150kg capacity compare to standard jockey wheels?
Standard jockey wheels typically have 100kg to 120kg capacity, whilst this jumbo assembly handles 150kg static load. This makes it suitable for heavier twin-axle caravans or loaded trailers where nose weight approaches the higher end of the scale. The extra capacity provides a margin of safety, though you should always check your caravan's actual nose weight rather than relying on maximum jockey wheel capacity.
What pressure should the pneumatic tyre be inflated to?
Most caravan jockey wheel pneumatic tyres work best at 30 to 35 PSI, though you should check for any markings on the tyre sidewall. Under-inflation makes manoeuvring harder and risks pinching the inner tube on rough ground, whilst over-inflation reduces grip and cushioning. Check the pressure monthly if your caravan is stored outdoors, as temperature changes affect tyre pressure.
Will this jockey wheel work on a boat trailer or plant trailer?
Yes, this assembly works on any trailer or horsebox with a 48mm clamp bracket fitting and nose weight under 150kg. Boat trailers and plant trailers often use the same standard fittings as caravans. The pneumatic tyre handles launching ramps and rough ground better than solid wheels, though the tyre will wear faster if you're regularly launching through saltwater or using it on concrete yards.
Can I get replacement tyres for this jockey wheel assembly?
Replacement pneumatic tyres for jockey wheels measuring 260mm x 80mm are available separately. The tyre and inner tube are standard sizes used across multiple jockey wheel brands, so you're not locked into one manufacturer for spares. Most caravan accessory shops stock these sizes, and they typically last several years with normal use before needing replacement.
