The replacement is... Has flexihose in the middle, so probably won't break again. Thanks also to Peter for the parts link. I think it's come time to part ways with the swagman though. We are simply not getting the use..

Norman I had a chat to Chris about the peugeot ........
Cost him around $20g.
He told me to tell you to make sure they put a new filter in.
Got no idea which one but on his they didn't do it & within a very short time it broke down again & cost a heap more.
I think it was the transmission oil filter but I'm not sure. I'll get more details in a few hours or so.

From the Shopmate website:
Weight and size restrictions
The maximum weight of a single parcel that can be sent through ShopMate is 22kg.

Individual parcels must not exceed the following dimensions:

a maximum girth of 200cm
no one side greater than 1.05m in length
a dimension greater than 0.25 cubic metres

The formula for working out the girth of your overseas parcel is:
Width + height x 2 = girth

For example: 30cm + 20cm = 50cm x 2 = 100cm girth

In the event that a parcel exceeds our weight or dimension restrictions, you will be notified and given the option to either pay for a return to the US merchant, or alternatively, pay AUD5 to have the item destroyed in the US.
