Post Driver Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 Dunno about newer ones as we have moved on to Strainrite. But have you ever had luck getting replacement springs for them? We've never had any joy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Post Driver Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Monkey Strainers have a separate spring for each arm amd the jaws are sprung loaded too. Great when all present and correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossco Posted April 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Can u pull around the a straining post with the strainrite one's or is it jus to the middle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Post Driver Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 You can get chains with a hook on the end for end strains or pass the chain through the jaw mechanism but the chain is a bit short for girthy strainers and can bend things. I copied someone else and made up a strop, never run out of chain length now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
