Ok i have found out its their sided 10 ton trailer that has a crane on the draw bar end with legs for operation. I think i have decided to go with a fixed bracket like Atkinsons fixed tow bar, braced to the rear axle or chassis some how and fit a draw bar type hitch(mechanical) for the rare occasion i need to tow. I will have to adjust the height of the trailer eye with a jack but as i cant see out the back of the mog i wont ever be hitching up on my own anyway. Does this sound ok to you all?

ok thats good work. i am going over to the yard where thsi trailer is and will see what the whole setup looks like. I will try and get a fixed hitch as i really dont tow much and if i do i would probably get a newer/larger mog. I have a tractor/highlift jack so for the odd occasion i can faff around with that. oh those with u900's, do you tow much, if so do you need the splitter box? mine seems reluctant to engage and i dont want to jam anything in the box. I just use 3,4,5 and 6 and 2nd for reverse. will this do?

Hi all, just nipped home for a coffe but had a call this morning offering me 3 -4 weeks solid work for me and my Mog. i normally do this and they just want me to chip but now they want me to tow their Botex timber trailer around onsite. i dont have a hitch on my mog and was wondering what the cheapest most straight forward way of getting one on there would be. Atkinson Vos have a MB trac linkage in their clearance section which might work but im happy with a fixed hitch just to keep the cost down. i dont intend to tow on the road, she is slow enough already. I will be back later and hope to have some ideas as to what i can do. Thank you all. Ed. pa i have the 'banana box' on the rear for the pto so it would have to go below this. Pictures would be a great help too.

I am selling this one. i ran it on my David brown 880 so your db will be fine. where in the country are you?
-
very nice, could be athe answer to a job i have on in a couple of weeks.
-
I did, it sucked totally. The full time students covered almost all of it but im 1 day a week as are 4 of us. we didnt cover lots of it. Not happy and cant stop frowning. im sure i will wake up tomorrow in a better mood.
-
Sorry to hear the bad news. Do chickens take much looking after? I have been thinking of getting some for the yard.
-
That belongs to a friend of mine. it will chip 6" but i didnt like the gravity feed and lack of rollers to grab the brash. Not bad for the money though, good engine.
-
Thanks all, i found said sign today nowhere near where i was working. someone must have found it in a hedge and moved it but its back now, phew, not a big expense for me.
-
Hi all, i was borrowing 2 tree cutting signs from a friend but have managed to lose one in between the job and my house.( a 1 mile stretch). either someone has taken just one out of the back of my truck or its bounced out. Anyway, can you tell me where you guys get yours from so i can replace this one asap? Ed.

I am a member, i have a 130 tipper and a disco3. you have seen the pics in other threads. Good work guys and girls. Land rovers have a certain kudos.

Hi Gibbon, nice to see a member near me(newton abbot). Devon Tree Services have a tracked mewp. worth giving Andy a call there to see what he can do for you. Ed.

Hi all, i have a hydraulic 3 point linkage splitter and was thinking about mounting it to the front og my U900. I dont have front linkages, has anyone made up or can suggest a good way of mounting the splitter? Ed.
-
where would i get a diamand wheel from?
-
Ah so it is possible but not very nice. Thank you Ed.
-
Thats a great price. Can stumpy teeth be re sharpened by your average chap ie: me?
-
My U900 in the snow and along side the county I love it to bits and use it as often as i can.
-
I love the bright green one. Are they dumper tyres? Mine look tiny compared to that. I may be interested in a front linkage set up when you start making them.
-
My work mates, i borrowed it to take the bikes to North devon for a trial. I like the chunky tyres and have you lifted the suspension?
-
I have a hankering for a series one in my life. Well the doublecab has gone and in its place is this...
-
yeah, he made it himself. was a 110 now has rear bogie axle and roll-on roll-off body. still got stuck in the mud though!
-
Chap came and picked up some bits from the yard in this
