AVION Travel Trailers

Welcome back and congrats on the purchase! Speaking of those drain slots at the bottom of the front windows, I find they require something in front of them (small piece of foam), otherwise road spray will infiltrate through those weep holes when driving in the rain, and end up getting all over the f...

What starbrite product did you use?

In any case, that’s a major improvement in your finish!

I’m not sure either since I’ve not done this before, but I suspect a rotary polisher may be more aggressive than an orbital one. What pads did you use with the C4? I did purchase these three products and applied some by hand awhile back, and they did seem to make an improvement. I was especially sur...

I ordered mine from Colin Hyde (info in post above). It’s been several years, but I believe he just had me measure the distance from one mounting bracket to the other. I’m not sure whether the same torsion axles are used for all 89’s.

It’s been 6 years ago, but I paid $1400 for two axles and that included shipping. I also went with a 32 degree down angle instead of the lower 22.5 degree angle. These axles also had a grease fitting for maintenance.

Depending on what you find out, you might also try Colin Hyde. I ordered a pair from him for my prior Airstream.

I’ve added these to the For Sale and Aluminum Trailer Shop sections so these rockguards are easy to find in the future.
