16' Series Remote Caravan Mover

[David Spencer]

Hi,

I own a 2016 Expanda 16.49.4 and have built a garage which has a real tight parking position for the van. The entry includes a bit of a rise as well.

In the investigation phase to see what 'value for money' preferably entry level style remote control caravan mover people can recommend?

I have an Outback with a Trigg hitch.

the options are endless
how much.... depends on which type

I dont have one myself, so not 100% on how good they are or not

I have seen the type that has a motor on each wheel (sits behind the axle) seems to work ok, but there is a weight disadvantage to it being permanently fitted

the ones that your jockey wheel fit into, seems to be a better value for money - as long as you remember to keep it charged

Hi David
I have a 16.49.4 as well I move my van with a min mover new 4 yrs ago was $230 attaches to the jockey wheel l have a 400 mm rise on my block to put it in the shed and is still working well. Need sometimes to track it on wood to give the wheel traction in the grass when wet. On concrete works verry well. Need to plug it into 12 v for power. Not remote but there is a leaver on it to guide it and forward and reverse buttons Selling it with my van at the moment 10/10 for price and practical . Buying a bigger van . Any more info needed message me

Mini mover is not permanently fixed
Easiest is to put another jockey wheel brace on, just bolts on. Mine been there since l had the van. If you want can send a photo?
