Well as it says above I've currently got a bodged on chip catcher on my 130 I'm about to build a new body as the one it came with is knackered and I'm struggling to decide on a full roof with vents to stop the dust blowing back out or stick with the catcher your thoughts and opinions would be great many thanks Tom

As waz said, makes nipping in to grab a sarny that bit safer and you'll be surprised how little dust will come back out even without vents.

Bit bigger truck but this is how mine is set up and I'd have the same if I replace the twin cab 130 with a single cab tipper.

I'm hoping this picture shows up since its on my personal facebook...

 

This timber and ply box was supposed to be temporary but its been on three months :lol:

 

I added the hinged lid with gas struts after a few weeks as the chipper kept blowing over, works a treat!

I like that it looks like the best of both worlds the security would be a bonus of a full roof and would stop me putting as much chip in lol
