550 / 530 spare wheel carrier and motor mover clash

Hi all,

Please can anyone confirm if the spare wheel carrier on the Troll 550 / 530 is affected by / clashes with, the motor mover actuation bar? On my Familia 320 it does and it's not ideal carrying the wheel around separately if you fit a mover.

Cheers,

Matt.

We have a mover on our 530 and the spare wheel carrier is underneath. I assume it's all good under there, haven't actually looked but the mover works fine so must be ok.

Doesn't this depend on the make/type of Mover fitted. On our 542 which is in chassis terms the same as the 530 there is no interference with the Reich Mover. I've also seen Eribas with the Mover fitted in front of the wheels.

It's because of the shorter length of a 320. A Troll spare wheel is set further away from the axle so it shouldn't be an issue.

The rear end of a Troll is going to be longer than your Familia. As such the spare wheel cradle should not need adjustment/relocation. Waste pipes from sinks might need adjustment, depends on the mover fitted, but should not stop a mover from being fitted.
I'm not sure where in the UK you are, but that nice man in the north west, JohnE, John England, - trading as www.nestoncaravanservices.co.uk is the man to go to.

Hi Colin,

We are in Somerset, near Glastonbury, but thanks for the info.

Thanks for all the replies guys, it seems only the baby Eribas are affected (motor mover and spare wheel clash).

Matt.

The 310/320 wheel carrier can be adjusted to avoid the cross actuation bar between the two movers. The rear struts are bent slightly. This has been done on my 310 and works really well. The fitter did this for us.
