I bought the truck from a company called Watford commercials and they send them off to a local company to be converted. When I picked it up I was amazed at the job but on the road was a different story they left one windscreen wiper on the truck taken the tax disc out, I stopped to get fuel and thought wow this is thirty to find a hole on the neck of the fuel pipe, phoned them up and got no answer all day finally managed to get back home to plymouth. Monday morning put the kit and chipper on the truck and basically had no suspension left with half a load of woodchip on the suspension was completely gone. So got some 7 leaf springs from midland rd springs which have be brilliant. The garage itself said I could take it back to them to have a look at it and wouldn't let me get any quotes down here , really bad service all round but they have some pretty good trucks there.
