I have a snakemarster stabalizer and find every time we hit a bump in the road it jumps out of the slider. With the state of the roads in Britain it can be very annoying having to stop and replace have tried adjusting hieght and pressure but does not seam to make much difference.Has anyone come up with any ideas which may help.

hi you could drill through the top of the U shaped block and add a split pin.this block is designed to turn with the blade so no interference with this can happen.

Never had that problem. Sounds like it may not be fitted properly!

 Hi Tom Tom, having had a think about you problem I am 90% sure that it is down to incorrect fitting, these stabilisers are all the same design though some are more effective than others be they breckland driver,bulldog,snakemaster etc. have a look at www.bulldogsecure.com on their site there are fitting and use instructions that are downloadable and printable follow those and you wont go wrong,its also worth doing a search on here as I,m fairly sure there are links to most stabiliser man. web sites

andloads of question and answers by our friends on this site good luck.Ps. the

Bulldog 200Q is the eqivalent of your snakemaster.
