Brilliant looking truck mate:thumbup1:

 

Is the hiab run off an electric pump or pto one?

 

What weight is in the hiab and where did you get it and the cost?

 

Cheers

Hi Robert,

 

Thanks for the comment.

 

The Hiab is ran off a pto.. i was advised this is the better option.

The weight of the Hiab is approx 400kg.

 

The Hiab is one of 2 that i managed to get my hands on.. they were both removed from uni mogs form some company. these are both as new with no wear what so ever. they both have the optional extra double booms as well.

 

I fitted 1 to my iveco, and am thinking of fitting the other to a landy.

I payed £5000 for the pair.

The omfb pto & pump + pipe work etc came in at just over £1000. all of which was fitted by myself.

Cheers mate.

 

You have made a cracking job of it:thumbup1:

[Martin B Doyle]

Thanks.

 

Origanily i wanted to buy one complete, already done. However after driving up and down the country looking at the SH!T that people were selling.. i decided to build my own. Cost me a little more but i have piece of mind that i know everythings safe, all pipe work is neatly tucked away and strapped to the body work. hydrolic tank is tucked neatly behind one of the stabilizers etc.

Very nice job. I like that hiab no problem lifting a stump grinder on and of, over a fence and in a back garden and all the other stuf.
