Motor movers and wheel locks
Hello. Can anyone offer any advice on which wheel locks can be used with a powrtouch AWD twin axle motor mover?

Hi, the 'trough the wheel' type would be OK-something like the Nemesis.

The only time the AWD motor mover becomes an issue as far as wheel locks are concerned is with regard to the jacking points. Otherwise, any could be used and I would favour Alko if your chassis has the receivers for them.
Since you can't normally get at the jacking points with an AWD MM fitted, you then enter the debate of the best method of raising the van to fit the second lock. Or, alternatively, you use some other device rather than Alko.
I have used Lock 'n Level for years and have been pleased with it and have only just replaced it with the E&P hydraulic levelling system which makes the fitting of locks so easy.

Although I have a single axle, I use an Alko where there is provision on the chasis and a Nemisis on the opposite side purely as a visual deterrent from both sides. It is also visible when an awning is used, when the Alko is not visible.
I have wondered why these two are not used in combination or two Nemisis for twin axles to avoid the need to jack up the van to fit the second lock. A pair of Nemisis can be used on either side of the van so could be visible even when awning fitted.
