    Check Straps

    Hi,
    Looking at making some check strap out of some conveyor belt.
    I noticed on line the Lengths are different.
    Measurements I found were, 31 3/4 and 34 1/4.
    Which length fits which side.
    Does size suit a SWB (88) series 3, standard suspension ????
    Thanks

    I was looking at the rotted remains on Wombat the other day. Are they not available new?

    That $50 each? If so, that's $200 for a set which is plenty of justification for doing it yourself.

    Their website only covers a few items, there is a catalogue they published a few years ago that lists everything.
    Always worth a phonecall because they also have a lot of secondhand stuff.

    PM your email address and I'll see if I can find a .pdf copy of the catalogue to send.

    Thanks Colin. I've just sent them a message asking about the catalogue. If I don't have any luck from them, I'll get back to you.

    You're probably right. I've just been checking my photos and can't see any on the front. I'd have to go out into the shed to make sure but seeing that would involve getting out of my comfy chair...
