Shop Electric Jockey Wheels
Electric jockey wheels take the manual effort out of moving your caravan or trailer. Instead of winding a handle to raise, lower or manoeuvre your rig, a motorised jockey wheel or electric trailer jack does the work for you. This is especially useful for heavier vans or for anyone who wants to make hitching and unhitching quicker and easier.
Types of Electric Jockey Wheels and Trailer Jacks
There are two main styles available:
- Motorised jockey wheels replace your existing manual jockey wheel and use a 12V motor or drill attachment to drive the wheel, letting you position and move your caravan
- Electric trailer jacks focus on lifting the coupling point up and down for hitching and unhitching
Some models combine both functions. If you are looking at the full range of manual and powered options, our caravan jockey wheels and parts collection has everything from replacement wheels to complete unit kits. For levelling once you are parked up, check out our caravan stabiliser legs and levelling range.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between an electric jockey wheel and an electric trailer jack?
An electric jockey wheel replaces the manual jockey wheel at the front of your caravan and typically includes a motorised drive wheel for repositioning. An electric trailer jack focuses on raising and lowering the coupling point for hitching. Some products do both.
Do electric jockey wheels work with all caravans?
Most electric jockey wheels and trailer jacks are designed to fit standard A-frame setups. Check the mounting dimensions and weight rating against your caravan's specifications before purchasing.
How are drill-powered jockey wheels different from fully electric ones?
Drill-powered jockey wheels like the Lil Rippa Jack use your existing cordless drill as the motor, which keeps the unit lighter and more affordable. Fully electric models like the Black Jack trailer jacks have a built-in motor and wiring harness for push-button operation.
