Jockey wheel gets jammed

Often when hitching or un-hitching when the ground is not totally flat my jockey wheel gets stuck and I have to hit it with a hammer to straighten it up. It appears there is too much play in the hole which it fits through. Is there an aftermarket sleeve which I could use to make it a tighter fit.

    you can buy new clamps and bolt to a-frame. have to remove top cover first but should be a simple job.

    Many thanks I will take a look at that option although the caravan and jockey wheel are only 13 months old.

    I have a 2018 Lunar Clubman CK purchased new June last year

    get the dealer to replace under warranty.
