If they are made by Dynapac , they are a pos.Out of 3 that I looked at that "twilite zone" had on the shelf-brand new- 2 were bad,were not even pressed together fully,about a 1/16 of play in them.

If you buy cheap crap, you get what you pay for. Don't pinch pennies on what your life is depending on. Did that once, will never do it again.
