Can anybody recommend a jockey wheel to fit a Smart Tow A-frame? The frame is 25mm square steel box but can't be drilled due to the fact that it telescopes when not in use. All the ones I see on E-bay are for 50mm box.

    I've now had chance to try this out peedee and it works brilliantly. I us a luggage strap that has a hook on each end and an adjuster in it which allows me to make fine adjustments so I can drive the car to position the coupling directly over the ball. So many thanks.

    Pleased to read it worked out ok for you and using an adjustable strap is a good refinement on the method. Thanks.
