Hi can anybody help just fitted a new set of wheels to my camper and they are rubbing on the sliding door when you open it.I read in a campervan mag (last year) about a firm that makes a longer sliding door arm does anybody no who they are and have anybody fitted one before.
Thanks Paul

Is it early/late, left or right hand drive?
