We'll be needing a replacement truck soon and need 4 wheel drive. I'd ideally like a bigger truck than a pick up.

 

A new Mercedes Sprinter 4x4 chassis cab is v expensive. But I've been looking on eBay and there are a few 2nd hand 4x4 Sprinter panel vans for sale. I've been thinking that so long as one made sure to get a 3.5 tonner and a decent sized engine, one could buy one of those, take the back off and have an Arb body and tipper fitted.

 

Has anyone done this, or knows anyone else who has? Or knows of a reason why it wouldn't work?

 

Any advice much appreciated - thanks.
