really dont see the point. 

 

if you want a pickup as a day to day wagon as well as a work wagon then get a trailer. It will have 4 times the capacity of that tiny pickup.

Because then you need a tracked chipper (lots more £££) to save taking two vehicles, and its a right ball-ache when you can't get the chipper and the chip on the trailer and you have to make a return trip just for the chipper. Trust me, Ive a double cab hilux, towing a 12ft (8m3) trailer with a tracked chipper, more than a 3rd full of chip and theres no space for the chipper. 

A single cab 4x4 pickup with 4-5m3 chip capacity and standard 6" chipper would be better for a lot of small works, lighter rig to tow (less fuel) smaller rig etc. Even if you had to tip twice in a day, its still the same km driven as my setup. 

 

They've got their place in the market imo

What's involved in updating a dmax to 3.5t, is it as simply as an air suspension upgrade and a 're register or is it more complicated than That?

id agree with all that josh:thumbup1:

its all down to how often you need to go off road with a chip truck, round our way its all the time so a landrover 130 tipper works well, any bigger chip box and id say your talking mog or tractor n trailer. every ones set up varies a lot according to type of work and type of site plus size of team etc, what will work for some wont for others not so much a case of right or wrong .

Lots and not a lot.  In terms of buying and fitting a kit, it takes about 3 hours to fit a set (However that is us as a manufacturer with the vehicle already stripped down and just before the new sub frame gets craned on).  As far as i understand it, because the uprating changes the GVW you have to re-register it with DVLA.  With our process on making these changes to brand new, unregistered vehicles and because we have achieved NSS Type approval for it and have manufacturers approval we don't have any issues.  However, not all manufacturers will allow an uprating so you will have to be careful on which you choose to do.  If you'd like any further info please call our office on 01536 529876.
