Draper Airbag

I am getting a "bung" of Nodo$h soon, but I also need a airbag.

Is the Draper 3 tonne one any good for the D3 for changing wheels or is it too small. Also do you need the bigger exhaust adapter they sell to go with it. The takla is a bit expensive for my simple needs.

ISTR Draper no good as it does not lift high enough.

With careful placement the Draper will get a wheel off the ground on a firm, level surface. One of the guys in Oman or Qatar has one and has been able to use it ok on level sand, but it's pretty much at max inflation to do it.

The Bushranger jack has been mentioned a couple of times and there is a group buy on at the moment. No idea if this is a better option? I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

That's less than the Takla Group Buy rate

Speaking of which, the shipment containing the last of those is due in this month - I'll send you a PM with details and you might find their willing to hour the same rate for an extra person

LRs are a fond memory, apart from the maintenance.
