  1. Don't think my typing at this time of night helps, don't think they manufacturer it themselves but outsource it but to there own design..

    You been photographing my store there Tim?
  3. From what I here a new version based on or even the German version of this will be available soon.
  4. Hold on a new 1 is on its way to Rico and look like it'll be a good change!
  5. Yeh, did that this time because there is bound to be a next time
  6. Yeh, take everything apart to get the pin out as it won't because of the direction it's put in. I can see why it was welded last time it snapped, done well as iv had the vehicles at least 10 years now and it must have been like that when I got it!
  7. Git of a job today changing the shiny little linkage bit in picture so I can change between high and low box. All oils changed and new shocks on the back but as the bushes were not in the box no new anti role bar, someone is going to get shouted at next week for that!
  8. Shame it's 42k or it'd be ideal for everything I'm looking for in a tractor, better get another lottery ticket eh!
  9. Terrafirmer heavy duty anti role bar and britpart dinazorb big bore shocks, Springs were done last year with twin coils.
  10. Same here, hopefully get new suspension finished on landy before anyone calls.
  11. Mine too, try thicker bull rope it takes her longer so I get longer uninterrupted on here 😜

    Storage

    Very securely, all locked up guarded by miniature angry glow in the dark wolves and I ain't telling you the safe command
  13. Bugger forgot to add picture before sending
  14. Answer to softwood - make these... This 1 is no more than 7" diameter and 12"tall for £8 spotted in cotswolds in Newcastle today, getting the label printed probably cost more than the timber.!
  15. Looks solid and like it will have some good gripping force judging by the size of ram behind those claws. Your going to have to get some videos of these new toys up soon Eddie as we are dying to see them working.
  16. Chipping the stuff it torture unless it's a big open hopper machine that you'd normally think was overkill for the size of material. Like Stephen said 360 to rip it out then either burn or row up at the edge of the site on better ground and run over with a mulcher which is how I did some for the m o d a few years back on a no burn site, expensive equipment but knocked my labour bill down to about 10% of what was originally proposed and tried by another contractor on the site the year before with a tw190. We did a lot more in less time for the same cost and probably more profit, everybody wins.
  17. Landy 90 pick up, ex army 2.5ltr normal aspirated diesel and a lengthened sanky trailer was my 1st legal Road going vehicle that started earning me money paid for by bezing about the local farms doing jobs and logs since I was 14 on a old quad bike I'd got and fixed up.
  18. Unfortunately the long rought and was closed and impassable due to a washout and even deeper flooding so the only other choice was a pub for the night which was tempting. Annoying thing was at 7.30 when the closure diversion was being set up everything was fine and passable, joy of the dales and fast rising swale. My job today was build this with my 4 year olds 'help'
  19. Yeh, that was trying to get home from a job up the dales where I had the bigger 360 over its tracks in the flooding river. Was an interesting drive home for sure!
  20. Landys are made for playing in the floods Ian, you got a raised intake yet? Had mine so my feet and peddles were under water last week and the tray back was level with the water, not recommended but she servived unlike the Hilux following me.
  21. Will the loader reach high enough to tip chip into a 30yard role of role off skip Jon as that's what collects my chip? On the look out for something for the yard and to do odd runs out to collect timber off jobs as well as some winching work on some of the more technical estate forestry style jobs we get to do. Driven a MF 390 lots as a skidder and like the simplicity of these older tractors and with decent ground clearance.
  22. Congratulations, Well done bud, James has done the same recently aswel.
  23. You'll be wasting away, quick get something down ye neck soon! Almost about to serve up a relative feast to the Lawrence clan.
