Dual purpose vehicle

[renewablejohn]

At present I deliver my IBC containers full of split logs using my MB Trac which is a bit sledgehammer to crack a nut. I have a cunning plan to convert my old land rover 90 into a delivery vehicle by adding a fork lift to the rear with fold up forks. The idea would then be to run on white diesel but under the rules of a dual purpose vehicle keeping the ability to tow a trailer. Even thought of making it agri reg to overcome the hassle of annual MOT. Any views on why it will not work. Existing 90 has rear bench seats with access only through the back door.

Good thinking John! Old girl deserves to be back on the road! Are you thinking of having the forks on the rear crossmember?

Was looking to attach to the existing tow bar frame as it seemed to be the most solid part of the defender

can't see a problem with the idea, a local bog merchant round here regularly delivers single portaloos with a simple looking set up hanging off the back of a 110.

its a landrover , if has not been done already then it probabley cannot be done! I use my winch cable as a crane over the top of my 130 defender to lift ton bags into the back via 3 pulleys

Apparently has already been done on an Australian land rover.

Lots of things were done before...
