Swift Challenger 560 Rear Wardrobe.

Are you taking sufficient clothes, if they are tightly packed in there is no issue 🤣🤣

You could try foam pipe insulation over the pole and then put your hangers on.

Hi Bakers2

We have foam pipe insulation over the rail but still they are all in a heap when we arrive on site!

Not sure if we use enough clothes to tightly pack them in, as usually trying to save on weight!

🤣🤣🤣 sorry I'm sure someone will be along soon with another idea. Can you 'force a stop' on the rail to bunch clothes tightly for the journey?

Our hanging space isn't huge so not had the issue.

Gonna try to do the opposite with the foam insulation, ie instead of putting the insulation on the rail and then putting the clothes onto the insulation.

We are going to hang the clothes directly onto the rail, then put the insulation on top, then gaffer tape around the insulation and rail, see what happens next time we travel?

I have already screwed the rail to the hangers as the rail was jumping out of the side cups, so that's now sorted!

If you’ve not already got them, fitting shock absorbers to the caravan should improve matters, as will having the wheels balanced.

We used to have the same van, so know how much the overhang at the back jolts everything off the rails. I don't think we found a solution unless everything was packed very tightly. I suppose you could make use of all those PO bands and tie the hooks together somehow? Anyway it's a small price to pay for a nice van, it was my favourite! 

A simple trick that we do is to alternate the direction of the hanger hooks, one pointing forward and the next pointing backwards. We’ve never had anything fall off the rail yet. It costs nothing either. We do tend to have the wardrobe fairly full which must also help.
