Wheelclamps and bearing buddies
Does anyone know of a decent clamp that fits over a bearing buddy? I can't see any clamps that allow for them anywhere on the market.

Matt,
What size wheel. I have a wheel clamp going at half retail. SAS type for up to 12 inch wheels I think but would have to check. I also have a Bulldog Hitchlock if interested.
NR.

I have one of these
I also have bearing savers. So long as the bearing saver does not stick out much further than the sidewall of the tyre you should be ok.
Nick.

Peanuts compared to what it is protecting.
The tubes are full of concrete.

Yeah true. I don't normally skimp on stuff like that but I'm a tad broke after buying the boat.

Seriously though, I am quite pleased with it, it is bloody heavy.
Someone here posted that the easiest way of getting a clamp off was to drive it off. Whilst not wishing anyone to try it on my boat, it would be interesting to see how much punishment it could take.
Nick.

Matt,
I have a Bulldog Titan on my trailer, which is fitted with bearing savers.

Cheers Ian. I think I'm looking at either the Titan or the Nemesis then.
