What makes it good for putting Alko wheel locks on, Russell ?
Take a look at the web site
http://www.locknlevel.co.uk/
and watch the video for the twin axle, a bit fiddly first couple of times but once you get the knack really easy and fairly quick, makes putting alko locks on simple. MY17 D5 1st Edition Namib Orange

So as the bag slowly looses pressure the weight starts to transfer from the wheels/chassis to the corner steadies. The occupants would probably not notice in use until the floor started to bend and delaminate. Not good for second hand value. A vaccine does not stop you catching a virus, or passing it on, or getting ill from it, really ill. It does reduce the likelyhood of you dying when really, really ill.

Hmm, I can see the benefit for a twin axle - but it adds nothing for a single axle ...

I thought the idea was for it to stay inflated ?
Personally I wouldn't be happy otherwise.

Thanks for the feedback, have just spoken to them and its made from the same material as recovery air bags just not as thick. Cant see it loosing pressure quickly, maybe if it was on a seasonal pitch but not if you tour with it, my tires dont and disco is 850kg heavier than the tin tent, but can see the point if it does go wrong the weight on corner steadies i reckon i would end up putting 2 blocks under the axle for peace of mind the first few times.
