Die pale ingesit binne my tent staan nou sonder om penne in te kap.
hoeveel pale het jy ingesit, ek neem aan twee, daai plan sal lekker werk om die tent meer stabiel te hou .
2014/12/07, 07:14 PM #184
Nee ek het 3 ingesit een wat op die plank onder die matras stut en dan nog twee albei kante gedoen weet noe of dit nodig is nie maar dit skop die tent mooi oop en hy kan nie terug val nie.

As ek se onder die matras bedoel ek in die hoek steek stuk van die plank onder jou matras uit en daar het ek een van daai clips gesit wat jy op die kante van karavane kry die bal tipe wat indruk net sodat die paal nie gly nie die boonstes op hulle eie kan nie werk nie sonder die een op die plank kyk na my foto dan sal jy die een paal sien wat van onder kom om die eertse dwars lat te stut. Jy sal moet Swellendam toe ry om te kom kyk my wa gaan volgende week Worcester toe.

Ek en 'n vriend het in Maart 2014 vir ons elkeen ook 'n xt140 gekoop en het die Desember wat verby is in Zim gaan kamp. Ons het egter albei probleme opgetel met die inlooprem. Op albei van ons se sleepwa het die skokbreker voor in die haak losgekom en een keer het die skokbreker sommer mors afgebreek?!
Is dit maar 'n ontwerp fout of is daar iets wat mens kan doen?
2015/01/08, 04:10 PM #189
Ek sou dit terug neem agente toe.Ek is seker Jurgens sal geen probleem he om dit uit te sort.

VON, die baviaans kloof het my xt140 se gal gewerk en ek kon net nie verstaan toe uit ry aan die ooste kant op pad huis toe dat die trailor so klap klap as ek weg trek of stop nie ,dis toe dat ek lees van julle se probleem en ek dadelik loop kyk ,die skokbreker was mors af gebreek ,ek strip dit net daar en haal die shock uit.
ek sal dit by die werkswinkel versigtig laat opsweis met 'n mig welder ,weet nie wat 'n nuwe een gaan kos nie ,maar die probleem sal weer op duik, glo my sal interessant wees om te hoor wat jurgens of die makers, alko,te se gaan he
sal bly wees as iemand met 'n modifikasie te vore kan kom ,want breek sal dit weer
om die hak los te maak is net 'n 19 spanner en 19 socket om die 4 boute ,maar eers moet die handrem handvatsel se bout eers uit en net onder dit moet die spitpin uit en die pen verwyder word ,dan is dit 'n gesukkel om die 4 boute los te maak met spanner onder in anders draai die bout in die rondte.

I finally got the Shurflo pump for the XT140. Now I can relocate the gravity fed tap!
2015/01/20, 08:41 PM #192
I recently joined the forum, this is my first post . Used to browse around here as a guest.
I bought an XT140 with extension in September 2014 and took it camping in October for the first time (Pilanesburg). Second trip was over December to Loskopdam, where I camped into JacoK. What a small world.
It was a tough decision for me what to buy, but eventually settled on the XT as it is good value for the money, and since this is my first offroad trailer, I did not want to over invest.
So far very happy with my acquisition. It tows like a dream, and offers enough flexibility for packing.
I have done some mods already and will post a few pics soon. To date I have:
Fitted a HCDP mk4 panel
Fitted LED lights inside the trailer
Mounted NL on base plate
Fitted a very nice canvas storage bag to the front wall (inside) for odds and ends
Fitted plugs for 220V and 12V (Hella)
Added a Hella plug for solar input
Added the rear slides (standard Jurgens issue)
I am constructing a table/washing station at the moment that fits around the wheel arch on the "kitchen side" using connect-it blocks, and have some ideas for kitchen storage. Also planning to fit a pump so I can move the gravity fed tap to a more convenient location.
Based on the experience gained from the two trips, I'd say the rear slides may require a bit of reconsideration and a more convenient kitchen setup would have been great. The ammo boxes are just too much of a nuisance
I currently use the lower slide for 4 ammo boxes, and have fitted a floor to the top slide, where I store tables, chairs, etc. The height restriction of the back tailgate means that you lose quite a bit of storage on top if you want to pull the slide out.
I am thinking about removing the top slide and fitting a fixed shelf. That way I can still use the 4 ammo boxes at the bottom, but better utilise the storage space on top. Any ideas and suggestions welcome
BTW, underneath the lower slide there is about 80mm of wasted space as well. This space happens to fit two 70W Tenesol solar panels perfectly. Over December we had a non-powered site at Loskop, and this was a perfect opportunity for me to test out the solar setup for future adventures. Two solar panels joined with hinges to close take up 60mm of space and lies snugly on a piece of carpet fitted to the trailer floor, between the frame of the slides, safely out of harms way.
Now for dreaming up some creative ideas for a more convenient kitchen setup...

You got yourself a very nice trailer - well built and tow like a dream. You will enjoy the HcdP Mk4 panel that works like a charm with a lot of facilities condensed in one unit.
Regarding the rear slides for ammo boxes - yes these boxes do become a pain espescially when one has not yet organised it pretty well. To pack and unpack and every time opening the rear frame with the spare wheel is somewhat of a bother.
You are right there is a lot of space waisted above and on each side of the rear slides but with your top extension you should have enough overall space?
I used the space beneath the slides for all sorts of things. (tools, braai grid, braai tang, jumper cables, spares etc.)
Any way, I hope you enjoy the XT 140 - there is a lot of information on these trailers on the forum.

Thank you Carel Kriek and JacoK for the hospitality. I have also been pleasantly surprised by the number of XT trailers going around. I noticed a separate thread where some mods are discussed. I will switch to that for future posts on mods. Would be nice to see more contributions to XT mods, I am sure there must be lots of creative ideas out there.

I also have a XT140 and the kitchen is the one thing that bothers me & SWAMBO the most. I have done some web crawling and this came up. http://wildebeestgear.co.za/
I got the dimensions from them and it would fit on the fridge slide. The slide just needs to be lowered by 5mm. The unit is a bit expensive, but contains about everything you need.
I don't know if it will be cheaper to fabricate it yourself as I have two left hands and would not even try.

As julle julle trailers stoor hoe maak julle,
Ek weet die ouens met karavane lig hulle karavane efens op om die vrag van die as af te haal , doen julle dieselfde met die trailers siende hulle soortgelyke aste het of is dit nie nodig nie ?

JACOK,die xt140 het mos sy eie stutte ,so 'n mens kan dit gebruik ,dit sal 'n goeie praktyk wees om dit te doen ,myne staan in die garage en as ek wil, dan skuif ek dit ,so bly die bearings in rotasie ,maar ek raak nou gatvol vir dit en ek wil vir my 'n cover maak en dit buite stoor.
ek is tans besig om die jocky wiel te verander en dit pneumaties te verander om dit beter op die grond oppervlak te stoot ,dik gras en sand werk ons galle .
ek het 'n thread begin daaroor.
2015/01/31, 01:36 PM #200
Ek post maar onder die 140 maar het eintlik 'n 120 want hulle het dieselfde veerstelsel en het ook stutte.
My wa staan onder dak maar ek moet hom gereeld skuif om die deurgang te gebruik dus hoekom ek wil weet of dit skadelik kan wees vir die as sou mens nie die stutte gebruik as die wa gestoor word.
Ek stem saam dit is seker beter as mens die gewig af haal maar ek is maar aan die lui kant , ha ha,
Alberto, post asb 'n link na jou thread oor die jokey wheel modifikasie.
