Techy Question

I am trying to order a mover to fit to my new Troll 530GT and there is a choice of two brackets.

MC Fixing Kit 3.8 Eriba-Touring
Set of 2 adapter kits for HYMER ERIBA Touring models with square tube frame without L-profile.

I am not sure what I am looking for in deciding whether I have an L-profile or not. I would be glad if anyone can tell me. Preferably an experienced Troll owner !!

Sorry but we don't have a mover on our Troll (1999) but I seem to remember a year or two ago, when I researched them, the additional brackets needed for an Eriba fit, are bolted to the longitudinal framework profiles immediately beneath the floor fabric, and to the inside of the wheels. The mover is fitted across the van behind the wheels.
I have always assumed that on our van at least, we have an L Profile framework. See photo.
Hopefully, someone with a newer Troll fitted with a mover will be able to elaborate on this shortly.

How do you mean Rod? The chassis on ours is square tube profile throughout apart from the ones photographed which as you can see are L Profile. Does that mean that on newer vans the bits I've photographed are square tube section too?

I have taken a photo which shows that the longitudinal members of the chassis are L-shaped (or more properly box with an L) and the transverse members are straight box-shaped. It doesn't really make it totally clear, unless some Trolls have only box-shaped, including the longitudinal members.

Mine has box frame chassis with flanges where the mover is fitted.

I have rotated this pic before uploading it but it has still appeared upside down.
I think it is being uploaded using the raw data from the original so that whatever I do to it is ignored. 😤

Thanks Rod, so I assume you just inverted my pic from the forum?

TonyP,

That looks pretty much the same as mine. I described the longitudinal member as 'box + L', I think box with a flange fits the description. Do you know anything about your fitting bracket. Was it a Reich part ? If so, do you have the P/No ?
