Motor mover rollers

uk_dave&gill · 9th September 2016, 09:48

My brother and his wife are changing their caravan, and as the new one will come with a motor mover, have offered us their old mover

However, at least one of the rollers is U/S, so we'd have to pay to get the MM fitted plus new rollers. Can't find these under £100. Does anyone know of anywhere that does them cheaper?

Also, have read that they can be re-gritted - how effective is this? I've done a search on this before and it looks to be fine. Just searched again and found this discussion about it. First poster seems familiar

Have you tried going direct to the manufacturer?

We installed a second hand power touch mover to our caravan last year. The rollers were shot, but we managed to source some new ones from the manufacturer for about £50 posted.

I know Harry has a lot of knowledge in this field. I believe he regritted his a while back, I'm sure he'll be along soon.
