Self build camper

[mpo]

I have recently made a self build camper ford transit the problem I have is when I'm parked on a main rd / layby usually on cleveleys or st Anne's the van rocks when a vehicle drives past at speed any suggestions please I'm begging to feel sea sick !

 

[mpo]

Beginning to feel sea sick ( stupid pre text thing ! )

Fit some outriggers?

 

[TheBig1]

air assister bags in the suspension. they replace the bumpstops and can be pumped up to tighten the suspension, resisting the body roll

 

[Wildman]

you need a setback layby or steady legs but they would prevent a fast getaway from trouble, simple answer is park elsewhere

Cheers mate they sound expensive ?

 

[mpo]

Don't mean to sound dumb ( mrs states otherwise ) what are outriggers ??

 

[calion]

Outriggers are stabilising legs as seen on trucks with cranes or cherry pickers on the back, or fire engines when ladders are used, I wasn't being serious when I suggested them lol!

Grab a pair of second hand caravan wind down legs would be the cheapest option..
Ummm.. I have a pair actually !

I'm guessing its not a X240/X250 as these pretty stable. My Ford based CB was terrible for this. as others have said trying to sleep next to a road with fast traffic not the best of idea for a peaceful night....

Have a word with this company it may help

Jaws do you still have the steadies, if so I have a coach built and was wondering would they fit
Obviously need to check height required, what height are the ones you got
Thks

 

[Jaws]

yes, still got them .. No idea what size they are without checking.. But to be fair MPO should really get first refusal..
I will measure them tomorrow

 

[mitzimad]

if they are to short but blocks under them

 

[Tootles]

OR, stick a couple of local Cleveleys girls in the back.........Two slabs of ale, and a crate of pies. It wont rock with them on board.....

Maximum drop is a tad over 20".. So quite a large movement range !

I bought them and fitted then to the Miller but removed them when I sold it
