Hi and Happy New Year to all.
In a recent post regarding ferries where I mentioned rear grounding on exit I received some useful info from @cornish boy regarding rear air suspension. Whilst I appreciate the benefits of air suspension I am thinking of a more immediate and easily managable solution to this occasional problem.
I am edging towards some sort of replaceable skid plate (similar to a motorcycle crash bung) fitted to the bottom of the tow bar.
I have done a little bit of research since and want to ask the forum for opinions and experience with either rear rollers/caster wheels or plain nylon skid plates.
I have a 2012 Autotrail Delaware (Non AlKo) and have grounded the rear a few times on entrances to campsites and when going on and off ferries. I currently have a tow bar which takes all the damage so at least the fabric of the vehicle is protected.
Thank you for reading.
Best regards
Nik.
