I would suggest that you contact 321 Away and ask them.
I purchased my bongo from them and I feel that they would be glad to assist.

I don't use clamps.
Just the pole. No damage to paintwork and easily un-hooked for driving away.

Was camping last week so took extra notice of how I thread pole.

As you say, best and easiest, because of strut is, in front of 1st hook, behind middle on and in front of strut and rear hook.

Always stayed secure for me.

Hi Jilly,

I'm hoping to get there this year.

Will keep you informed.

I have experienced very high winds whilst in the Bongo and the bar has never shifted from the brackets.

It can be threaded so it sits behind 2 of the brackets and under one for a bit extra grip.

Hi,

I have a similar awning and I put the pole over the 3 metal loops that are usually hidden under the roof and only appear when the roof is raised. Sorry for the un-technical description.
Much easier than messing around with the figure 8.
This method holds the awning perfectly.

I'm having the same problem with mine at the moment.
Booked in to have it diagnosed and fixed next Thursday.

Hi Sotal,
Another good site to check out for campsites is UKCampsites.co.uk.

Happy hunting.

Hi Trish

It's a bit far just for the week-end, but if you don't get any other offers, I would be glad to help you.

Hope your new van is settling in nicely.

Have you christened it yet?

regards Marion.

Sounds good both of you. I am booking via Campsites U.K. Just discovered them.

Hi anyone out there.
I am booking for the Elvaston Steam Rally, near Derby first weekend in July.

Anyone else planning to go

Hi Ian,

I realise that this would potentially mean more work for you all, but even though the sites you choose are always great, I personally would like for the meets to be held at different sites so that there are new places to explore and visit.

Just a thought.

Marion

Hi Trish

Good to hear Bertie is well again, whatever a slave cylinder is?

Good luck on the sale.

regards Marion

Was about to ask what had happened to you Trish, then saw your posting. I would have pulled over but saw the guy there so realised that you had called the cavalry in. Hope it doesn't turn out too pricey as you are selling it. Keep us informed Great week-end and nice site. Thanks Ian & co. =D>

Great photos Gilly. Thanks for that
