Chipper mounted pickup???

[combined tree services]

i would have thought a chiper on the back of a ranger or similar would be quite a popular tool , alto we use our mog for alot of utility work but there are times where two guys in a 4x4 chipper would be far better , no trailer etc etc .

there was a dodge s50 boughton conversion on flea bay recently with a 10 inch pto chipper behind the cab. it was awesome. wish i'd bought it really!

Good effort, but like you say, a tad high to feed easily. How did you get on with the overhang behind the rear axle, did she get a bit light on the handlebars?

If you were to use a 3way tipper, but lose the traditional rear tip, shorten the tipper body and have it tipping to either side. could a dogleg be put in the rear chassis dumbirons to create a lower chip position?? or even convert a tail lift to give a work position and travel position??

So you would have the chipper rear mounted chipper shooting fowards into a hopper which can tip sideways. The chipper mounted lower so easier to load. Sounds like a plan.
