Default Anyone near Colorado Springs Colorado who can adjust my cables?
I have a 2003 2203 T trailer that caught the curtain valances on one side when I closed it recently. Everything I read suggests that my cables need adjusting and the top is slightly off. Is there anyone in near Colorado Springs Colorado who can make these adjustments before it gets worse. I will most likely just remove the valances for the curtains for now so I can get it open and closed more safely. Thanks for your suggestions

This is an EASY DIY procedure! It's covered in your owner's manual and you need only two wrenches to do it.

Thanks for reminding me the cable adjustment is in the manual. As i said in my post the left side of the trailer scraped the valances (curtain) off. I measured all 4 corners from the bottom of the top half to the bars that hold the top when in the down position and the right front is 1/2 inch lower than the other 3. Sounds like the issue is simply lower the top to take pressure off the cables and snug up the right front cable 1/2 inch. Anything I should look for ie why after 18 years did one cable get slack in it. Thanks again.

Dennis - I re-sent the email again. If you didn't get it, your server doesn't like me. Let me know and I'll send it in a PM.
