With respect Troha, those cages are for static use, not transport, the mesh is 25mm or greater and the gauge of wire is poor. If the dogs were in the red van then even your cage could have been found ... |

RADAR was an off shoot of that technology, just a full circle, cars with ECU's will be far more susceptible than the good old diesel with a mechanical pump and a hand cut out, they would be completely ... |

According to Witter, the detachable swan neck is 150Kg on S value, I would take it back and get a 150Kg version as per the specification for the FL2. I would suspect the mounting for it is generic and ... |
