Picked up my new to m,e caravan Sunday but had a small problem with hooking up.
On the van is a ALKO coupling, on my truck 4x4 is a big spare wheel on the back door.
We could just not get the ALKO red handle to clear the wheel.
In the end I removed the spare.
When I got home I found that I can higher the spare wheel by one inch, so all was fine, can now hook up easily to the van, problem solved.
Now my Pat is not that tall and she tells me that the spare wheel stops some of her vision in the rear mirror now it has been moved one inch up.
So like a fall suggested I can get a spacer that sets the tow ball out one inch, forgetting how heavy the spare is.
Now what shall i do, change the wheel down and fit the spacer or buy Pat a cushion to sit on.
And after all this the spacer may not give me room to hook on.
