This is my lpg kitted v8 auto winch truck. I started out with a 1959 series two back in 1987 and kept modifying it.. Its more 90 than series two now .. KAM axles with low ratio diffs futted with Detroit locker on rear Trutrack up front. Britpart +3" dislocating springs and matching deCarbon shocks 16" beadlocked modulars with 37" Maxxis Crawler tyres .. Theres a Britpart 12000lb winch up front and soon will be fitting another in the back with an aA frame for both towing amd being towed.. Ive got an old Harvey Frost recovery jib ready to go on so i can use it to haul bigger logs out of the wood , been using it to haul out wind blown stumps and the odd hung up tree recently

HI DAN looking good there mate well done there jon

[Dan White]

Cheers Jon! She's come a long way from a rolling chassis 18 month ago, but always more to do. No room for chip in the back but the side kitchen locker might come in handy as my future arbtruck!

 

Which winch did you go for in the end Jon? I've a Husky up forward but thinking about fitting hydraulics in place of the aircon.

Any chance of a close look at the top. That does look good. And I like the side aswell. Is it the same the other side? Or is it just one sided?
