Where can I buy demountable legs!

Re: Apollo Repair/Revamp/Rebuild...Help!

Thanks SaDgit, Thank you for letting me know. Sounds like there is a marketplace for someone to start making or importing these. Where do companies like Apollo and Ranger get there legs from? Could I not buy a set for a company like this? One of the reason I want these is they look like they lower t...

Re: Apollo Repair/Revamp/Rebuild...Help!

Hi guys, I was hoping to start the work on our Apollo soon.

One thing I would like to do is add the normal legs like most other demountables have. Mine are old and detach, but I would prefer the fixed ones. I am not bothered if they are electric or manual wind. Where can I buy these?

Thanks

Re: Apollo Repair/Revamp/Rebuild...Help!

Thanks for your replies guys. As our work involves having to do this in the dry, we have decided to build a garage/workshop at the side of our house. So the Apollo will have to go on hold until we have this done. We have just knocked our 1947 brick shed down and then we have to break up the concrete...

Re: Our first Trip out!

Hey Mike, Great to see the photos of our demountables on here. Thanks for adding them. Hopefully we can get to Kent tomorrow. All depends if our mechanic can get the legs back from being re machined. Going to be a hot week, will interesting if we can find a nice shady area at the campsite in Ashford.

Thanks Derestrictor, I agree they do look like they match well. I need to give the allows a good clean as they have a red oxide type thing on them.

Parking...which are we?

On our first trip out we passed through Lyme Regis. Nice place to visit and glad we stopped to have a look about. We used the car park at the top of the hill and this was the parking charges sign. http://www.ultraimg.com/images/2016/07/13/unnamed1.jpg My question is, what are us demountables? Not a ...
