New Expanda owners

[Expanda14]

Hi
We are new Expanda owners.
We have had jayco's and campers before but this is our first Expanda.
Our expanda is a 14-44.4 with fixed bunks at rear. It has an under slung axel and a larger drawbar
Fiamma bike rack ; large fridge, and a 120w solar panel with a 100ah battery and a plc as a solar controller. Done by myself i have done all our old van / campers with a similar set up
Used it a few times and love it.
The usual teething things with a new Jayco but i fixed them after our first trip.
And just had over two weeks at Pambula beach with it .And it gets easier each time we use it should of done it two campers ago......
The only stupid thing is the very low coupling height on the draw bar just had a alloy spacer machined up from a solid peice fixed the problem [ no thanks to Jayco they just kept sending me around in circles and said there was no problem ]
Anyway love the forum hope to keep reading good posts
cheers Expanda14

Welcome expanda14.
PLC controller sounds interesting.
And in terms of spacer, jayco actually sell one. Don't know how they failed to mention that to you.
Enjoy the forum.

They told me they did Not sell coupling spacers.
I even rang jayco head office and they said they think you can buy them but did not know where to get one....
The spacer I made was easy. I got our machine shop to make it
Thanks Brad

Actually I think it may have been Canberra Jayco.
Not to worry.. Sounds like you have the tools for the job.
