Ooops, that could have been painful

Wilbers fitted at around 36,000 miles. Now at around 90,000, units both serviced once. Use includes Alaska last year with a fare bit of dirt roading, a few off road trips plus low level flying and at least one not so low flight in Northumberland a couple of months ago (which also probably killed the original battery with a very hard landing).

So if you really like to use your Wilbered 1150 hard keep an eye on the lower mount, I thought at first it was just a knackered bush

You were lucky.

Baz's 1150 had Wilbers on and snapped his paralever in Mongolia!
The reason though was the bottom shock bolt snapped first as had mine.

I guess it's more common than I thought. Mine snapped too. Was probably the rock shelf I dropped off near Sedona, Arizona that did mine in.

Surely any shock has a good chance of snapping jumping off anything high ish on an 1150
