Which end? Or both?
I've got some spare ones.
Do they come with straps ;-)
The smelliest end, sadly. Odd how *Abby's* cat always ends up travelling in
*my* car...
Yes - and they're free ;-)
I had to take our cat to the vets once and it got out of its box and was sick all over the back seat(this was in the days when we had a Jag with leather seats). On returning home I wasn't feeling too well myself at the prospect of having to clear it up. I mentioned what had happened to Bruce, who said don't worry about it I'll sort it out - which was a great relief. He went to the back door and whistled Bullseye took him out to the car and the dog ate every last bit. I don't know which was worse - me clearing it up or the dog eating it. Bruce then informed me that Staffordshire Bull Terriers have strong stomachs and will eat virtually anything - well his did anyway.
Definately worth having done. Ours is a 1990 and there was a huge difference to how it felt just in just normal driving conditions before and after. When we had new shocks, bushes and springs done last year, Bruce said the difference, especially with the caravan made the difference between feeling safe towing and not. We ended up doing ours at the Land Rover Show at Peterborough because Bruce didn't like the way it felt. Was a good excuse for him to spend some money, buy some new tools and he got plenty of help from the next door campers.
On or around Fri, 05 Dec 2003 11:28:16 +0000, Mother enlightened us thusly:
yeah, but the typical light commercial chassis they build minibuses on has more steering lock angle. Mind, some are on those 'orrid Talbot-style FWD chassis. Typical rigid truck has about 20' or more wheelbase, but the front wheels turn like a taxi.
the problem with LRs is not the lenght but the restricted lock angles. Something which, interestingly, is not actually essential: the 4x4 Ford, being based on a RWD chassis, still has much more lock angle on the front wheels than a typical FWD car, though I daresay it wears the CV joints more.
