Ah, just checked. I thought the sides were 1.45 tall, they aren't their 1.2 (my transit is 1.45 sides).

 

Still about right weight wise. 6 cubes of woodchip at roughly 350kg a cube is 2100kg and the trailer is about 1200kg empty. Gives you a bit of wiggle room. I tend to use the 3017 for stems/rings so I want to avoid overloading, which I Could easily do with the bigger trailer.

Looking good Andy [emoji1360]


Thanks Al she certainly is earning her keep. I've got her near enough mechanically where I want her just need to sort the body work next year. I may if Finances allow put her on a galvanised chassis and put a manual gearbox back in at the same time. 64e04fb17c84e18f07895f1ecc836cf8.jpgddf6b8c599c058bf797ac86267e8fa8e.jpg1ace2298957b4719c959f108027d9c1b.jpg24c88680493364c99b5e21a788bc5520.jpg

Another van added to the fleet this week, 1st time I've had something that's not 4x4 as a workhorse, pulls the bandit well so that fine by me.
Had to codge some sides on as a temp effort till we can spare some time to build a lighter alloy body for it but all really had to modify with a full lid as 90 lobs chip that hard it was bouncing out everywhere.
Put it on the scales today and 2720kg with me in it so not as bad as I feared.
