when i zip my under bed storage to my Concorde t/t, at both front corners there is a very large gap enough to put your hand in and touch the ground.This makes the sleeping pods move all night long,and makes them cold. I have tried putting plastic bags in the holes, but this dose not stop the draught, what could i be doing wrong, or is it normal, which i hope not,your sugestions would be much appreciated.

Before opening up, attach the box to the frame. This saves the back breaking crawl under the bedroom.

next, zip the edges of the skirt to the canvas walls before pegging out, then the pop studs along the top.

Now peg out

It sounded as though you had either had the trailer steadies too high or had pegged out the canvas too wide.

Don't worry, after 48 attempts you will get used to it/

Hi Stuart,

Thanks for your reply,the problem i am having is  (as i now know) the bottom skirt, i just cannot get it tight to the sides, perhaps i am putting it on wrong.

I put mine up as Bill said  fastern the zips before you peg.  I also release the side bars so its not taught (to get the slack) and zip up then.  Then I raise the bars and peg out.

Hope this makes sense.

From the sounds of it think you have the steadies down to much.

When I set up. I zip on before main pegging (I put one in by the door so no flip-back) then poppers, I don't attached the storgae bad to the frame, my bags fill it out when put in - saves a lot of time. With uneven ground there may be some gaps.

Hope you sort it.  

thanks for all your advice, i will give it a try.
