That's a fun job... I have done it 3 times now on 2 caravans. But it's so worth it for the ease of moving the van.... It's a bit like electric windows on a car, you don't NEED them, but boy is it hard to live without it once you have had them.
We have been to a few sites where the view at the rear of the pitch has been better than the view to the front, looking out at other vans, so often now, we use the motor mover to drive the van in forward to the pitch, and can look out the window at a much nicer view... only problem the ferrets at the rear of the van are now complaining that they have lost the view.:lol
