Dougiebarder 10 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Would there have been just one on each vehicle? (or one per corner maybe?) :? Link to post Share on other sites
MiketheBike 12 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Would there have been just one on each vehicle? (or one per corner maybe?) Only some pigs had them & it would have been pointless & impossible to fit more than one. Looks like it needs resetting with a spanner, so its maybe not easy to reset, so its a bit of a last resort whatever it is! Link to post Share on other sites
