Hi Jeff
Lethal is what I would call it.
It's on my new 14' single axle
Bushtracker,
It's Simplicity Suspension, with the cracked section being a drop arm that
Bushtracker ordered especially for this van, to lower it's height 100mm, apparently to lower the entry step to make it easier to get in, seems bazaar for an off road van.
Since Peter Thompson's ( BTs spokesman) answer on warranty was "absolutely, no way, you've been flogging it" (before even seeing photos) and when asked about manufacturing fault, he told me " they x-ray the welds,so no warranty" (Hauffe &Co don't x-ray, BTi must or ?? ),
The drop arm sections will not be going back on the new suspension , as I see them as unnecessary and a weak point for potential failure.
Disappointed at this attitude towards a component failure on a new style van.
I thought they would have been real interested to inspect the arm for possible cause of failure, in the interest of safety
