I just wanted to see if i could get a few responses here. I know that Scamp's official stance is you are supposed to have the bunks down and in couch mode when traveling. I get that. But it's kinda a hassle and with 2 kids i'll never use the Scamp in couch mode.
Does anyone travel with the bunks setup? Is it safe? Any issues? I would love any/all advice on this, i'm fine doing couch mode if i have to, but if i don't i would love that.
You would need to make the two support rods more secure. Figure out a way to attach them at the top and bottom. Then you should be fine traveling in the bunk position.
great thanks. i made a "bunk rail" for my kids. 1" PVC pipe goes up from each support rod, then to an elbow, and then a cross bar connects them. it holds the rails securely (it covers the entire portion down to the L piece that connects to the bunk). i did a test drive to the title bureau yesterday and it seemed fine.
maybe i will look to find something that secures the screws under the bunks to the support rods permanently, that would probably do it.
