We bought a rachet type - same as the original in Albany WA - Caravan and accessories shop - cost about $150 - 160. Look in the caravan accessory places

Cheers

Thanks for the reply John, I'd prefer the Manutec type if I can get one at a reasonable price but so far all equiries result in a cost of $280 + . Maybe it would be better to source it from the BT factory next time we're going thru next Aug.

I did not notice the actual name - butit is identical;to the OE one. Been fine now for a year or more. An internet search on Manutec dealers may also find it for you. I think there is one in Perth.
