In a word NO Shocked

Someone was talking about them a few years ago but I'm not sure on the outcome, there were concerns that it might not function with the twin pipe setup the ffrr has.. Plus actually getting to the exhaust on some L322's is a real mission Rolling Eyes Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer... Today I are one!

Only in as much as the system is not a true twin system, and the rear box has 2 pipes.. as the air bag needs pressure to inflate it, and one side of the box is open, there was a though "is there enough pressure" from what will effectively be a leaking exhaust... and then there is still the issue of getting at the bloody pipe to start with.. they have sort of hidden it up behind the rear wheel, Whistle not exactly use friendly..... Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer...

I have one but I wouldn't use it to change a wheel. It's a recovery device when one is bogged. But as said above, the twin exhaust outlet could be an issue. I haven't tried it with the L322. Ron B. VK2OTC

Whistle I have a vague recollection of that one too.. Seeing as we are both in the dark.. I would assume that it wasn't successful ...........

The biggest problem with a plumbers pipe bung is they are made of rubber, and an exhaust gets Censored Hot.... Whistle That is a recipe for disaster Shocked Yesterday I couldn't spell Engineer... Today I are one!

We used to jam a potato into exhaust pipes for other reasons when I was a kid Whistle Mr. Green

Maybe that would work? Shocked
