[JonnyVine]

Hi jonny the new 10ft is 30kgs less then the old there looking for £ 3000 plus vat for a 10ft x 5ft one that's just trailer on 195 tyres thanks Jon

 

Hi Jon

Realy need the extra length of a 12 footer, 14 foot would be better but they do t make one

Its a big disappointment to hear about the down hill build quality of the newer ones, I have a 14' flatbed about 15 years old and is still in excellent condition

Hi Jon, I dont have a ifor williams tipper, but it is on my shopping list this year, but a bloke I do a lot of work with has. Overall he is pleased with his, he has had cage sides and ramps on it, the cage sides are better than the old models as they can hinge down rather than have to remove them, the tail gate opening top or bottom has been ok, only opening at the bottom only if carrying sand or stone type stuff but moving forward slightly as it tips out so the tail gate does not dig in the ground. With the skid steer and brush in it tows OK.

I think the alloy floor might not be up to it if you where tipping abrasive material all the time, guessing logs wont be a problem, the strips on the floor if shoveling off can be a pain, but there is no lip at the edge of the body.

The finish of the galvanizing is not as good on all the new ifors I`ve seen ccompaired to old ones, not to say they`re not covered just seems a rough (not smooth) finish.

I looked at brian james tipper, one of the things than put me of that was the indenspention type axles, rather than beam axles and springs.

I`ll go for the ifor williams, with the 185.13 tyres.

HI CRAIG thanks for that mate 185x13 tyres are the way to go thanks jon

 

Not sure jon, but they are the same size as the plant trailer, and that seem OK, they look quite a tough tyre, and a slighly larger diameter so should be better off road is my thinking.

HI TIM thanks mate jon

ive just bought the twin axle brian james tipper, tows like a dream. cant go wrong with alko running gear. The only drawback ive found is the tail board only pivots from the top so has to be removed to tip chip or wood, smashed a light the first time i tipped. brian james do not make light guards or so my dealer told me but they were less than useless. was thinkng of replacing lights with yhe much thinner led ones and then making up guards of some kind
