Finally collecting the Striker kit
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?

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.
