    Did your caravan back window break on the trip?

      No no, haven't lost any windows on the caravan yet. Did it look like it at some point?

      Yes ,I thought it had some marks on but must have been mistaken. Very nice van! Have you done any other mods except the wheels? I have a 1976 500 de lux, and fitted 14inch rims with 295 80 14 dunlop tracgrip, made a huge difference but we have only traveled about 10km of dirt road at a time.

      In my opinion you vans size is ideal and it's much better that a rooftop

      @@dewaldbiersteker7016 Thank you. I must say, I am super happy with it so far. Been such a joy to use with the comfort of course. Always been using rooftops, but this is next level comfort and so little effort to use 🤣 the rooftop only goes on when I reallllly can't get the van in there.
      I have done quite a bit yes. From axle, wheels, bakkie tires, lifted shackles, stronger hitch, some reinforcements on the frame and then of course I had to modify the feet, because of the new height.
