SJ orientation

[simonm]

what can i use to keep my SJ oriented correctly in my crab? the little rubber bit that came with it is no good... ive tried hose pipe but to no avail.

A dmm rhino krab works well an a rubber grommet in front of the spider jack

I use two retention rubbers one either side of my sj on a dmm ultra o and rever have any probs

Ive found the best crabs are the ones with a flat top like the one marcus suggests...personally I use an isc mini as its small and keeps the sj low.

After years of having the issue you describe, recently bought a DMM Rhino solves the problem,

Beale pinch. Not sure of the spelling sorry but they're cheap as chips. I use them on my SJ and they do the job just fine.

for me i've found the flat toppped DMM fat boy with a beale pinch and a bit of old black hose does the job.

in tight/congested work positions tho it will still creep round the krab which is why i'd consider switching to a different friction setup in those situations, such as a hitch climber and knot.

 

i reckon the sj is great but, like most things, it has it's limitations.

The rubber grommets work alright for me, but my old setup was far so superior, got some bits of hose that were just a little too small, heated them up and wiggled them onto a dmm fatboy, then put tape over them. Never moved, infact I struggled to get them off when I got a new fatboy.
