    Next step is to get the van alignment checked - assuming the G&S Control Rider can be adjusted? Will report back.
    Definitely get the caravan suspension alignment check, and yes, G&S Control Rider suspension can be adjusted.

    Many van owners have wear problems with even new vans. Makers do nothing about balance or alignment, just slap them together and flog them off to the unsuspecting.
    Our Goldtsream was very bad with tyres scalloping badly from first taking it out of the dealers yard. Their response was standard for the industry ..."You've abused it".
    We eventually got satisfaction through small claims court and had the alignment done by a mobile bloke. Problem solved. He does trucks and 4 wheel drives as well.
    D4s done at Tyreright next to Barbs Osborne Park. Good service.

    PS. I'll find his (aligners) card and post his details later.

    My brother owns a camper trailer business. He gets all his aligned by an independent mobile guy (works south of the river) and supplies the alignment report with the trailer. Wouldn't sell one without it being done.

    Happy to supply details (of both brothers business and the alignment guy)

    That is good to hear but it sure doesn't apply to most of them. Total disgrace the after sales attitude of many and consumers have little support from those supposedly their to protect their interests, but of course that's way of thread and a completely different subject.
    By the way, the mobile bloke I mention is Steve 0419 907 564 and he's meticulous in his work. Our vans new tyres are still looking good after he'd done his adjustments.

    Hi Alan,

    Steve is the same guy that does my brothers. Does great work and offers great service.

    Bigfoot Campers. Matt Gilmore: 0458993299.

    Be warned, he's got a LC 200. Boo! The LC-LR rivalry is alive and well in our family. If you call him, make sure you tell him that the Disco is a far superior machine to the tractor he calls a car...
