Land Rover 130

[treefrog]

Hi I have just bought a 130 double cab tipper as it will be replacing the 110 tipper I currently use. Its got a ali tipper already and I am looking for some ideas for a lightweight chip box.

 

I have a few ideas but am wondering what other people have used. Ideas and pictures apreciated

 

Thanks

Could you not simply extend the Ali?

[treefrog]

Yeah its one idea but I was just looking for something a bit different maybe. Just not sure just yet

We have ali sides, the original lower side panels still fold down, and we have a full length tool box along the side.

I would be going for the above, has to be the smartest one I have seen.

Tool box on the front on mine, came with ali planking on the sides, fitted the roof myself.

sorrry wrong pic, heres one of the roof, you have to be able to raise the rear half so that the chip from a Timberwolf actually goes in the boxif you get my drift.

Thats pretty tidy Stumpgrinder,any idea where the mudgaurds came from?

Those king of rear arches can be had from a trailer place. We buy hundreds every year to fit to chippers and they comer in different styles and sizes.

I built this one myself.

The bottom half is from an ali dropside sherpa, the top half was commercial vehicle sides that i adapted. The top is going to be slightly redesigned to have a fully enclosable roof at some point.
