Hello all,

 

Just wondering if any of you know if you can store a Conway Challenger on its side? (obv taking out the fridge, gas bottle etc) I've had a Google and cant find anything useful or the storage racks for sale. I've tried the Conway Club but as yet havent had any luck getting on the forums.

 

Thanks :)

I'd be surprised if you can store it on its side. It's really heavy compared to the other trailer tents etc that can be stored on the side. It might wreck the chassis, mightn't it? Also, it would be a heck of a thing to take out the fridge, etc.

Aha after looking through the instructions it show my Challenger stored on its side :) So Ive emailed Penine to purchace the storage rack. Yipeee saves paying out for storage all year now. 

P.s Pauline now that we have it we know the fridge just lifts out no problems.

 

Thanks again for the replies :)
