Jayco Swan camper trailer
(Preview)
Hello Travellers,
Can anyone give advice on how to keep the half,or top of the door ,secured to the ceiling for travel. The toggles seem to be weak and don't last.
I'm guessing it's a common problem and suggestions would be appreciated.
It's a 2017 Model.
Thanking you Norm and Jean.
