Swift Challenger sport 586 2013 - body length

[VickyM]

Hello, my caravan is in storage so I can't measure it, but I'm wondering if any Swift Challenger owners can tell me the body length please (not including the tow bar hitch).
Thank you

Most dealer sites quote total shipping length, but knowing the A frame length you can deduct it from the total length.

Thanks. I've googled it but can only find shipping length and internal length 🙁

This might help, the UK A frames seem to be between 0.9-1.0m.

Swift tended to encode the body length into the model number, so I'd guess with a model number of 586, that probably relates to a 5.86M body length 19' 3"

But please don't take it as gospel.

That’s the internal body length. The OP is looking for the external body length not shipping length.

? I didn't say it was the shipping length.

 

[RogerL]

External body length is rarely, if ever, published - just internal length and shipping length.

Why do you need to know, as that might affect the accuracy you need.
