The club's concern over product liability is greatly unfounded. Why? Becasue the club has no deep pockets. Rule number one about filing a lawsuit is: go for the deep pockets. There is no reason to file suit against a non-profit club because they have no money. If any item distributed by the club were to cause injury, most likely the manufacturer of the item would be sued...not the club which merely distributes the item....there's no money in it.

When I was there last year I was amazed at the huge number and density of cars parked in the park. We showed up Thursday afternoon and there were already hundreds of cars on the field. In the US a very large Land Rover meet draws about 100 rigs. It was the first time I ever walked past hundreds of Land Rovers without even glancing at them because there were just too many to look at everyone individually. An interesting thing. In the US you almost never see a Land Rover pulling a caravan. My first impression of my first UK Land Rover meet was there there seemd to be a lot of Land Rovers at this caravan meet.

I think the solution would be to add a spacer to get that tire away from the door ( and the white paint) Has anyone else seen this and what was the method of correction?

To sue the SI club you have to sue them in the UK since there is no US presence. They can continue to safely send goods to Canada. Christ, if a member here can have a diesel head lunched by a local machine shop and the shop get away with it, the SI club is rather safe. ------------------------------[ <- Message 11 -> end | Table of Contents | <- Digest 970722 -> Archive Index | <- Browser -> ]

Suits up to $5,000 are relegated to Small Claims Court, I believe the worry is that if a $10, $100 or even $1000 part causes or contibutes to an accident involving injury, death, or even just inconvenience, the S1 club would be sued for hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars. Plus the cost of defending oneself in a foreign land. I don't know if there is any validity to the concern, or if it is even possible to sue someone in another country, but that doesn't lessen their concern, or the results of that concern. > selling merchandise and parts, used and "as is".

Is there anybody out there who can help me ? I am looking for specifications, and for technical/repair info. The which has a cast iron wire guide (with no rollers). A hydraulic pump is mounted on the end of the gearbox, and a control valve is mounted on its right side.

If there are members with a little jingle in their pockets, they could be worried for their own assets.
