Caravan Chassis Service
Peace of mind for the road safety of towing your caravan
Some customers do not require a full caravan service. A caravan chassis service involves servicing the chassis and running gear of the caravan providing you with peace of mind for the road safety of yourself and other road users. This service is NOT accepted by manufacturers for caravan warranty purposes (a full caravan service would need to be completed for warranty purposes).
All caravan servicing is carried out by fully trained staff and our company has public liability insurance. The caravan chassis service can be carried out at a place to suit you, whether it be at home, on site or in storage. No longer will you have the inconvenience and expense of taking your caravan to the main dealers.
Here’s what you can expect from a Caravan Chassis Service:
- Safety First: We prioritise your safety by conducting thorough chassis/running gear checks, ensuring that everything is in perfect working order. This includes checking and cleaning stabiliser ball and pads, check condition of breakaway cable, check for wear on coupling head and lubricate, check jockey wheel, check handbrake and lubricate, remove wheels to re-grease and replace wheel nuts to manufacturers settings, check tyres and brake drums. Check and lubricate corner steadies.
- After a Service -Wheel bolt torques should be re-checked by the caravan owner after every 30 miles of a journey and before EVERY TRIP. Ensuring that your wheel fixings are correctly torqued is vital for your safety to ensure that the wheels do not come off in transit.
