We bought our first caravan at the week-end after going through the tent - trailer tent - folding camper route.

We have purchased a Rapido Orline 33E folding caravan in reasonable condition for its age.

When viewing it I noticed the top sags on the chassis a bit, as we plan to keep it for a couple of years I want to reverse the sag and lift it back up with aluminium angle bar accross the whole width for support.

There is no rust on the chassis or rot in the wood floor.

Has anyone tried this or would I be wasting my time / effort ?

Congratulations, hope you manage to fix your problem. We have an older Rapido than the Orline. You might want to try one of the other sites that are for Rapidos and similar folding caravans.
