Didn't realise this! Confused

I've done it more than once with breakers and never had wheels fall off lol. Will know for future though! lol

Load leveller? That's what a seat belt is for isn't it! Big Grin


As for tips, keep the area tidy, keep things in the order they were removed if possible then it's simply the reverse of removal. And theres no rush, take your time as cully says.
