Would a PTO chipper realistically fit on a landy?

[Gray git]

Isn't that basically a mog?

Except the Dodge would if the law allowed it pull a loaded trailer at over 100mph uphill.

So does this meen you can run your vehicle on red and class it as plant? Haha :thumbup:

[big chris the log]

Now you're talking!!

 

The world was a much better place when we over-engineered everything

 

Second that ,you can still find some good stuff if you look away from the mass produced make it as light as you can with as small engine as you can get away with,nowt like a big lump of steel and a big lazy engine.

I know a guy who had an entec pto chipper running off a Lwb Landy must be about 14 years ago .

Not sure where he got it or if he got it made to suit, but it worked

only problem... think about most domestic tree jobs.

 

you reverse truck & chipper down customers drive and drag branches to the chipper. if the chipper is sandwiched inbetween a trailer and the front half of the landy... its going to be a pain in the backside!

Everything is a compromise.. It would be better on some jobs worse on others..

Hi I have no experiance of these,but how about a dodge ram diesel take the body off put chipper on a turntable and with the cummins at 5.9 and 300 odd hp

 

would run it no problem then put tipper trailer on and it still would nt know it had it.Just a thought.

This would be great, but the Dodge Ram weighs a shade over 3ton empty without much fuel in it, so you wouldn't have the payload to mount a decent chipper on there with turntable, unless you had C1+E and ran the Dodge at its intended weight, but in this case that would defeat the object of the idea.
