Re: The journey to date
Bernie you are correct about Photobucket using less Forum bandwidth but there are several on this forum that have limited data per month & the full amount of data gets used out of their allowance.
By uploading it to the forum those users get to see the small picture & can decided if they look at the bigger picture or not.
Thankyou for the thought though!!!
(must be some weight on the towbar?)

Re: The journey to date
Yes, fair enough, I guess we will be back in that situation again ourselves... sometime...
And yes the drawbar weight did concern me, in fact i could feel the weight on the back of the bus, so after 20k's or so I found a truck stop and reversed the car onto trailer instead, which seemed to work well.
Anyway, enough about that, more about this beaut big rig..
Have you named her yet?
Or is it a he???
Cheers,
Bernie B

No name yet, but no doubt it will be female so when there is a problem I know instinctively how to curse.

Re: The journey to date
Yes busman, when I raised the roof, I put a reasonably hefty amount of steel above the room as a lintel and more below the floor to replace the webbing we cut out. I hope it will be more than enough?Busman wrote: ↑Tue May 16, 2017 7:36 am Hope you have beefed up under that slide out or you are going to have a bent coach going down the road, we have 2 in the same position but have undertaken very extensive structural work to put the strength back in, once you cut through the webbing connecting the front and back module they tend to bend once you put a few miles and bumps on them. Chris Wright won't even fit them to denning or tourmaster any more due to bending, that may give you a bit of an idea.
