17' Series Fixing the ladder

[Matthew keough]

Hey guys, we all have em. Ladders. Looking for a place to stow mine in the under carriage. Ideas anyone? I wouldnt might a trundle tray setup but a bit exy. Plus the extra weight im not keen on. Pictures would be great. At the moment it gets keep in the van on the floor. Be awesome if Jayco had a prefab ladder and storage system.

Assuming you mean ladder for external use.Ours stays under the front lid. All good no damage to fibreglass either. Internal bunk ladder stays in place for us. Cheers Pace.

The kids can get up and down from the bunks without a ladder so the Jayco one sitting in the garage. We took a step ladder away last trip for Anti Flap kit left it in wardrobe..
Looking at a squeezebox one maybe for outside?

Hi mate ,

Now that I've moved my spare from under the storage box , I have a bit more room under there , fits in nicely,

Cheers

Sorry guys I ment ladders for external use. I am looking at ways of moving my spare to the rear, which i guess, will create the room I need to stow the ladder. But Geez it would be nice to have a factory fitted spot for it. Even though its only used for 5 mins at setup and pack up.

@Darrin that is not a bad idea we have our spare on the rear and have not put a tool box in as yet

External that is what I like the squeezebox one it fits in a bag and I can put it in the front tunnel.
Just have to get around to getting it
Have a look at the youtube

@Darrin thats the same ladder we got that we stow under the front lid.

How we now store ours... Was stored in the tunnel on last van but the tunnel doors on the new one are smaller!!!!

@Pace just beat me to it....

I have shifted my spare wheel to the back and have used the spare wheel carrier for my step ladder which fits great.I made up small piece of metal , drilled a hole in the middle of the plate and used the same mounting bolt and nut to secure the ladder .Hope this may have helped you.

Great ideas guys. I was looking at the rear bed idea. Love the look of the squeezebox ladder. Will keep u posted on the final resting place
