I don't think the insurance companies like it and so being I outsource our LOLER . I don't all together agree as I do see lads with issues with kit which rectified immediately and I would happily check kit without fear or favour . After all the LOLER certificate is a legally binding document and you would have to be off your nut to pass something that is not fit for purpose . Personally I have a policy if a climber wants it he gets it , he might have to remind me but having climbed on kit I don't trust or like is just not productive .

I had to quoate for a system a while ago , blooming expensive I thought and of course daunting . Brilliant idea and should be utilised in many urban environment and in the long term a saving . Would love to know how much that lot was and if I was far out on price .

That’s the very same Ty , worked a treat , just got the new model one so may have to change to these again too , however may look into helper springs although Wembley a bit far for us
-
I had a 35c and can’t say we ever had a problem . It did have 5+3 springs on the back which must have helped . Do the Iveco 65 wheels fit which might help with height as the certainly look bigger ?

Thats the ones , was being mean and hoping some one may have a pile sat in the corner of their yard , going to have to put my hand in my pocket then .

Stubby , I've got an old d22 also 190k on it . The turbo went the other day at the same time as the mot and had to think twice however by far the most reliable motor I have ever owned . used daily still for logging and not had an easy paper round but i do have a soft spot for it . As for D40's great trucks and go like the clappers , mines due for a change now and thinking ranger 3.2 as I've had a few issues .
-
Were they overground or underground ? bugger all the same . Making good use of things that they find ?
-
Got more than enough here if you want to pop up with a trailer , can load with a tractor no worries
-
A lot of this is down to luck/contacts also , who you went to school with , who you've been drinking with ect , some companies will wine and dine managers an QS's or people handing out the work in many different ways smaller companies just can not . Boxes at football or other sporting events . All above board and just the way it is .
-
Do you tow with yours often , how does it cope with chippers , was thinking just the quad chip and 6inch tracked or is this pushing it a bit .
-
How to people get on with these ? really looking to add one to our fleet .

I saw two lads in a car going down the M6 and the wipers on their car had broken and they had tied string between the wipers and string to each end and had a pulling sequence going on , bloody genius i think .
