Don't know where i found this idea but. a couple of pensioners had a jockey wheel jack fitted to either side of their caravan near the rear end so as to save them bending down to ground level to reach the van's jacks. was thinking of doing the same thing by mounting the jacks on a piece of 3/4 inch ply and the...

Hi Left hand side. Under member's forum name, some have a photo, some not, there's a date or two. Can it be worked so our town/region is incorporated into this area, and perhaps the name of our van and tug? Ross

Don't know how many do this but I have not seen it done very often. If you just need to keep food cool for awhile eg. next camping stop or a trip away from the van. Instead of forking out for a largish portable fridge --- just buy a small one and set it on freeze --- keep them blue freezer blocks in it and just ke...
