Lost one on the road? You're not the first.
The factory caps on AL-KO drop down legs split, go chalky, and vanish somewhere on a corrugated road. Then grit gets into the leg and you're winding a steady that grinds.
Most people end up jamming a 50mm fencing cap from Bunnings in there. Wrong size. A drop down corner steady is 40.5mm — a 50mm cap sits loose and walks off on the first rough track you hit.
These are the right size, made for the job. Reinforced back so they don't crack when you tap them home. Set of 8 — two per leg, all four legs — so you do it once and stop chasing them.
Made in Australia. UV Stable so won't go britle.
What you get
- 8 × dust caps — a complete set for one van
- Reinforced back wall — [BACK mm] vs [OEM mm] factory
- Correct 40.5mm square fit — not a fencing cap
- Push fit, no tools needed
- Made in Australia
Fitment
Suits AL-KO drop down corner steadies with a 40.5mm square leg — including 654874, 654874BX, 654875 and the Big Foot variants. Direct replacement for part PLASCAPS40.5.
Not for AL-KO ALQR quick-release legs (those take a 50mm cap) or ASSW legs (70mm). Measure your leg across the flat if you're unsure.
About the 50mm advice going round
If someone's told you to grab 50mm fencing caps from Bunnings, they've got the wrong part. 50mm suits ALQR quick-release legs. A drop down corner steady is 40.5mm.
