Palermo issues

Hi Alan

We are new to the forum and have recently purchased a 53 plate Autosleeper Palermo and are experiancing bed roll towards the middle of the bed.
Upon reading your recommendations on rectifying the problem we would be very grateful if you could send pictures and a measurement diagragm of your modification.
Look forward to hearing from you.
Best regards

Hi Dave and welcome to the site,

Alan,s advise on the bed saging was invalulable and has cured the problem for me, i have gone one step further and put two support bars in one eather side of the strut.
We love the van, as im disabled the room inside is good and the shower room a good size, it is easy to drive and very manuverable for its size, and a very responsive engine.

Have fun

Hi David
If you search a little further back on this thread you will find a picture of the strut mentioned.
Basically using a square section of metal tubing that was the same width as the bed frame, this bar was fitted from head to toe down the centre. A square hook was welded to either end BUT at the toe end the design had to allow for the suspension ram. I fitted some self adhesive cork pieces from Wilkinsons to damp any contact noise or damage.
The bar was finally dropped over the head and toe part of the bed frame and it worked.... it really worked. Sometimes A/S do not see the longer term picture.
Good luck! oh and goodbye as I have now sold my van.
Alan
