Glad you made it OK,
so here you'll find the other half of the group (mostly the Non-FB percentage) but unlike FB its a searchable site so everything you'll need to know is right here either by search or just shout, no problem we are here to help,

Welcome to our forum Paul, Maggie & Ozzy,

You'll find a wealth of information & advise on here. It's just a case of you ploughing through some of threads to find what you need to know, If your struggling with anything then just shout out. As Keef is only over the water from you then you may get a visit so long as you have the odd bottle or 2 of a fine Single Malt in exchange for some of his knowledge ;) ;)

Hiya Paul. It transpires I'm your nearest Demountable neighbour. We're down the kilbrannan sound across from Arran. Our truck is a 2003 Ranger, so you have a newer model. Have you planned to fit airbags? You will probably need them. There are a couple of things you will need to know if you do. When you've decided, I can give you some pointers if that would be helpful.

Hi
I would be very great full for any information you can give me. I will look into getting air bags any suggestions on make to get ?? As you can probably tell I'm new to demountable I have had a lot of 4x4 though.

Cheers
Paul
