I have a Jayco Sterling 23 foot tandem van. Noticed a couple of wear spots on the top of the Rocker Arms where the spring has rubbed as per attached photos. The wear spots are on both sides of the van and they are on the rear side of the rocker arms. Has anyone come across this problem and what the cause might...

Caravan leaks are a curse for many people and often a topic for help. I have done a search but not found an answer to my problem. our 2006 Traveller front window is leaking NOT around the window frame but between the window and the window frame. Almost as if the window was not closed properly. There is a t...

I accidentally pushed a light switch and the off switch at the same time, which has now cancelled out the on / off of the original light switches to 80% of interior lights.

Hi everyone. We are new to caravanning and just bought a Jayco Journey, 19.5ft. We are looking at changing our tow unit, as our current 2018 Prado 150 has only a 3 ton tow capacity, and it is overloaded with a bulbar, winch etc, so the payload is minimal. Looking at a '23 Everest Trend 2ltr bi-turbo. They s...

Any wonder that as a country we are struggling to keep our infrastructure up with the demand placed on it from population growth. I am not sure if this includes the net gain regarding births and deaths. I could go on and on regarding why we have issues with vehicles, roads, housing, jobs etc etc, but I t...

What are members experiences of travelling with the Foxtel (yes I know) IQ5? Given it's relatively small size, I though we could use it instead of our current SatKing vast receiver.

Whilst unleaded 91 was selling for as low as $165 litre over the Xmas and New Year period, that was a great Santa Claus present. But as of 10.1.24 the price has gone back up to $2.15 thereabouts. That is an increase of around 50 cents a litre. If the oil companies can offer us $1.65 for about 3 weeks, then why...

I know this is personal choice however is doing the Gibb Rd worth it or just stick to the GNH. Have been doing a fair of research and if you take your time its doable but suppose after 10 gorges they all look the same. Ta. -- Edited by Webmaster on Thursday 11th of January 2024 11:25:55 AM

I recently lost an 'inlay' crown and a dentist advised me to get some oral putty and stick it back in until I could see a dentist. Didnt find the putty but did find a 'filling repair kit' so filled the large hole. When I did get to the dentist she was very happy as there was no damage to the tooth - and she glued t...
