Hi everyone,
Has anyone ever used the Grayson manufactured rubber spring assisters on their tow car. All the other manufacturers seem to have holes to secure the rubber doughnut to the spring with tie wraps. However, the Grayson don't and a quick email asking the manufacturer if they needed securing came back as a simple "no". Now this answer may be because:

1 - they hold in place and never get forced out. - or -
2 - they do occasionally get forced out and this help to sell more product.

If anyone has any experience of them, do they stay in place or am I better drilling holes and securing with tie wraps?

Cheers!
Nigel.

nice one good to know ct works

Thank's nicko, they work great and we have saved a fortune but most important of all is that I now feel confident towing with everything behaving as it should, it all adds to the enjoyment. :)

Work well on bigger cars too. My Santa Fedoes not haveself leveling suspension and used to sink at the back a bit too much for my liking, so I got a pair and stick them on (10 minutes on the CL using the cars jack). Drive home was so much better than the drive there!
