Hi I fitted a Ryhno Lite to my Bailey Ranger 550/6. This has a mtpla (?) mass of 1296kg. I find it brilliant even on my gravel drive. It is high up and easy to fit. Occasionally it buzzes but doesn't move but most times it moves well - perhaps I should have gone for the uprated model. Not...

Hi We have managed to lose the inner half of the horizontal pole for our Bradcot 520 annexe. I am hoping someone might have one they would be willing to send me. I will happily pay the postage. Thanks

The Rhyno one is simple to fit and their customer service is excellent. Hope Rhyno sees this and I get a reply to my recent query quick!!

Hi I've got a Bailey Ranger Series 5. Could someone post some pictures of the wheel arch cover that I keep seeing mentioned including it being inserted? Thanks

If anyone wants a pair of Campion steel storm poles I bought for the roof of my Bradcot Classic awning they are available at

Hi Though already convinced that my first hunch was right I did get in touch with Alan Sanders, Service Manager at Alko UK about the clarity of the leaflet. he has already passed it on. He pointed out that in the UK virtually all manufacturers use a straight axle. Only those on the continent...

You know what they say about people who talk to tehmselves.. It appears to be a 945cm awning.

No not this SB!

Hi Stephen Many thanks. That picture confirms everything, including which way the spacer should be.

Hi JohnG I have only just seen your comment. It is quite possible I have been confused all along. Table 2 on the Alko sheet lists only 3 types of chassis: Sraight, Delta axle with one profile, and Delta axle with another profile. It lists beside these how to mount the shock absorber. It...

Hi Stephen Thanks for the excellent pictures!! So you have put them on as I thought and not as in Alko's diagram (which shows the shockabsorber on the other side of the brackets!) They show them as 4(b) not 4(a) :)

Hi Steve & Janet Thanks for your response. I will use the middle hole which seemed fine for the measurements. Could you check to see if you ran the shock on the chassis side of the brackets, because I have room for it there but not on the outside as the instructions suggest! It leaves me 5mm...

Hi I have just bought a Bradcot awning with annexe, 7 or 8 years old, which was used with a 20ft Abbey Oxford caravan. I am hoping to use it myself or at least the annexe if the awning doesn't fit. The awning and annexe are green and grey in colour and have steel poles. What model(s) could...

Got down to it this afternoon. Took one wheel off so I could measure better. Everything is fine except the Alko instructions are hard to follow and the diagrams are far too small! I think all the diagrams are of the nearside wheel though that isn't obvious, especially 4(b) which shows the...
