No grab, damaged boggies and a slightly fire damaged cab. Grabs are cheapish some fire damage is ok but the damaged boggie could just be a money pit.

I know Wilsons put a Botex 560 on a Fast track a little while ago. Why not find out who they did it for and talk to them? I have thought about a fast track epsecially with the 4wheel steering. That would be useful. Downside is the price of said fast track and there seems to be a love/hate split over them. There was one that use to turn up around my way (which i'm guessing was Ashman's) but that disspeared a few years ago. If you just want one vehicle why not put the crane on the mog? Could even take the roofmount off the Valmet and have a mount and stablisers made up for it.

A guy down the road has two of these.

That is amazing.
-
Yes they did. If you go on their website you can read all about it; if your sad like me.

I know your Navara is new but check the idicators make a buzzing noise to indicate the trailer indiators are working or you have a light on the dash telling you they are. A guy i know got turned away with his L200 at the test centre as it didn't make a buzzing noise.

I have an 07 Navara Outlaw. Been impressed with it so far. It's massive inside and the rear seats fold up so you can put stuff in the back of the cab. The load bed is very big too. I have it as the nissan garage is about 2 miles from my house. So service and parts are very local.

Fantastic.
-
Same.

My appoligies it is 4wd the front tires are cleeted. Loading might not kill it as long as you don't pick up too much. ]Does you plan involve buying a big valtra with a crane on it. If so that is s good but expensive plan.

The emphasis really is on the road driving. You have to do an off road reverse an emergency stop and a hitch/unhitching. Which is about 15mins of the hour test. The rest of the time it's out on the road i was fine on the trailer bit i failed on the driving bit (not looking long enough in a mirror). Passed 2nd time though. The other guy on the course backed over the trailer and failed on that:blushing:
-
If you can put the skidding winch on the crane tractor you winch, skid and load all with one tractor. Only have to get out to unset the chokers. Unfortuantly that tractor looks like 2wd and if your skidding its more than likely no good.

Not had a Husky one yet. Currently got a Bacho one despite being in feet only and made of plastic its held up very well. No problems with it and it was very cheap.

Thats the funnest thing i've hurd all day.

If you chipping 8" material with 60hp you'll see a lot of no stress kicking in. Ifs just brashy stuff you should be ok.
-
Thats been up before. I can't make up my mind about it comes with a spare gearbox,stearing, clutch makes me think that its gone pop or is about too. Crane is a little short and i doubt it will lift more than a tonne close in. For 2.5k though it may be a fun toy.

What about milling it your self? Or getting it milled and build it yourself.

Happy Birthday cheif.

Quads are useful on the farm and in the woods but they're not worth having inplace of a car. Not just all the road legility issues but the fact someone might just knick it from Tesco car park. Out of interest how old are you? If your young and wanting a first car then its going to be expensive even on a old banger. Unfortuantly its best to bite the bullet and just do it as you start to earn a NCB.

Most HGV training companies will do it. Find your loacal HGV test centre (you have to take the test there) pop in and ask around (if its not far). I did mine in a car and box trailer just outside Oxford (which was the closest). I'm not going to recomend the company that i organised it through as they were very rude. So much so that they now get no business from me nor from anybody i know.

About a year ago there was loads of these in the Farmers Weekly classified.

I only get heated handels now. makes a big difference. I wish they would just make it standard so you always have them. If you always use them i wonder how much damage you could stave off your body.
-
Nothing wrong with heated handels. Wish i had them on the 660. I love the 576xp with a 24" bar.

I had a D22 solid bit ok kit and dam good on the fuel. I've skidded some big bits of timber behind it too. Have a D40 now i like the refinement to it over the D22 but it does lack the agri grunt the 22 had. I love the Rodeo good workhorse but has the refinement of a new navara. Also a 3litre engine. To the orginal question i think there is a guide to fixing it on the nissan navara forum.
