One other idea Mark is there room on the chassis to drill and fit a different type as you could replace with a slightly different one if the chassis lends itself.

Also have you tried contacting a local caravan service company/mobile mechanic who should have access to replacement steadies? Even if they cannot supply the same one they may be able to repair it for you using a different type.

Not sure what else to suggest.

Good luck with your search.

Well I think I might just have struck Cabanon Gold... my wife gave the Forest Camping Centre a call and spoke to a really helpful chap called Dean.

Dean was able to contact Cabanon in France and place an order for a replacement corner steady for us within half an hour. We should hopefully have it with us (via France) sometime before Easter.

My little mistake has cost me £39.95 + P&P, but to be honest it's a very small price to pay as for a little while there I didn't think we were going to find a replacement (we'd contacted nearly a dozen Cabanon dealers or other Repair Centres without luck)

I can't recommend the Forest Camping Centre highly enough - if you need anything Cabanon related, they were friendly, helpful and called back when they said they would - the only company we called that did.

Thanks to everyone here for their input and help, it was really, really appreciated

Mark
