I have searched and googled until I am cross eyed. We would love to buy a stone deflector for the A Frame of the new campertrailer. Has anyone any idea who sells these?
Hope you can help.

The maker of the trailer would be a good start. Most of us make them up ourselves out of shadecloth or similar. Needs to be soft and loose so stones don't bounce. Preferably with a soft frame as
well. Bungee cord is good for top and bottom

Adventure offroad campers make them for their campers, I'm sure they could supply you one as a spare part?

Heckle and Jeckle
We made ours out of shade cloth in out chosen colour glued onto a frame made from square iron. I have plenty of pictures of our and other travellers different types of stone guards (upright, underslung, extended mud flaps on tow vehicle) - if you want to see any of them, let me know your email addy. They are on caravans, but principal is still the same.
