Trailer Jockey Wheel Repair Rim / Full Wheel Ø200

Trailer Jockey Wheel Repair Rim / Full Wheel Ø200

During a road trip through Italy, the jockey wheel on our caravan suddenly broke after hitting the ground while turning with our Adria Aviva trailer.

After checking replacement parts, I found that a new wheel would cost around €38, which felt unnecessarily expensive for such a simple part.
So I designed and printed my own repair solution — and after multiple real-world tests, it works surprisingly well.

This model includes:

• a repair rim solution using the original rubber tire
• and a complete Ø200 mm printable wheel for anyone with a fully damaged wheel or missing tire

Both versions have already been tested on our trailer and are working great.

🔧 What’s Included

✅ Repair Version

• Reuse the original rubber tire
• Print the rim in two halves
• Assemble both sides together with the tire installed

✅ Full Wheel Version

• Complete printable wheel Ø200 mm
• Great if your original wheel is completely broken
• No original rubber needed

🧱 Printing Recommendations

Rim Halves

• Print as provided
• Strong material recommended: PETG / PAHT-CF / ASA

• Use sufficient infill for durability

  

Full Wheel

• Recommended: 8 walls/perimeters
• Increase wall count further if additional strength is needed
• PETG or ASA strongly recommended for outdoor use

🔩 Assembly

• The rim is designed in two separate halves
• Assemble using:
  • M6x25 mm screws
• Insert the original tire between both halves before tightening

⚠️ Important

This is a DIY repair solution designed and tested for practical personal use.
Always inspect printed parts before use and adjust print settings according to your trailer weight and terrain.

💡 Why I Made This

Instead of throwing away the entire wheel and buying a costly replacement, this project makes it possible to repair or recreate the wheel for just a few euros using a 3D printer.

Hopefully this solution helps others facing the same problem!
