Finally collecting the Striker kit
loggyboy - 18/1/11 at 05:46 PM

Got a call a couple of weeks back that Striker is ready for collection, so will be going up this weekend. Thanks to father in law I have access to a SWB transit and 10ft trailer, so can put the chassis on the trailer and the more delicate items can go in the van. Cant wait to get it home, its been a long time coming!

Anyone got any secret hints/tips to make this process easier and safer?

take lots of straps and old rugs / bubble wrap etc. to pack around things and hold them still

Hope your problems so far are soon forgotten.

Are you a member of the sylva chat list and JPSC forum? There's a lot of Striker experience on there.
