Grumpy Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Mike I used that method in the past on older trucks on steel, where you have an idea of the axle loading by just looking. Bit more difficult on air, it’s very easy to blow a bag and then you’re in lots of trouble.:blush: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Frankly i am more confused now than before i read this thread Problem is people are quoting from different regulations; the rules for carrying out vehicle recovery under construction and use regulations are different to those under STGO and as usual sometimes contradict each other. You cannot just pick the best bits from each you are either complying with one or the other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mk3iain Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 I think this has certainly answered my initial question and opened up the bigger world of recovery. It is fascinating to see the complexity of this subject as it relates to the laymen and the professionals among us. It is also very important. It would be fantastic if all the information could be collated and a laymans guide produced? with the usual dissclaimers of course. I would try but I dont have the insight into the professional (complex) side, or the fine detail, or the law .....(i`m just not good enough.) Thanks so far to Mike, Grumpy etc Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
