Lil Bigfoot Tongue jack

I need an Al-KO tongue jack AKA Jockey wheel for my 1988 Lil Bigfoot
Hopefully one of you that live in Canada can tell me where to find a dealer.
I can find nothing in the states.
Any help would be appreciated as I'm about 3 days from completing my renovation and I want to go somewhere.
Thanks,
John

Try canvassreplacement.com.
That's where I bought mine.
They're a supplier of canvass and parts for pop up trailers.
It was around $100.00 with shipping as I remember.
How's your Lil Bigfoot looking.

Thanks John. It looks like they are no longer stocking that type of item.

The bigfoot is looking alright, definately showing some oxydation, but overall, for it's age it's looking great. We've had it since new - should have stored it inside!

How is yours holding up?

I think the jack was used on Starcraft Pop Up trailers.
As I remenber they did not list the jack on their web page.
I sent them a e-mail asking if they had it.
It goes in for a new axle next week.
I found a shop who will modify the frame to accept a stock axle.
I replaced the old blue dried up stripeing with a new red reflective stripe.
After a good scrub with Boraxo and a coat of Zepp Wet Floor Finish it looks almost new.

David, it's 105 degrees outside today so I'm inside with nothing to do.

Go to eBay and search for Trailer Jockey wheel and you will find what you are looking for.
They're in England but much less expensive than I paid so with the shipping they may be affordable.

The shine on your trailer looks great. I'm going to do something about that next summer. Have some damage from gravel roads so may repair that and paint it.

Thanks for the info, I may give them a call.

Off to Vancouver tonight, put the 2.0TDI to the test
