yeah it was perfect, frame was filled in with weld mesh, and if chipping, just had some thin ply which was cut to size to fit against the mesh, and rear window. i too thought about corner posts, but was too much of a headache to fabricate them into this style of load bed almost worked too well-could seriously overload the old girl!

make sure the air and fuel filter is clean, adjust carb back to stihl settings as mesterh describes, (dont screw them in tight, as youll wreck the rubber ends) if still no luck, get an air-line to clean the crap off the outside of the carb to prevent debris getting in, take the top of the carb off, you'll find a real fine wire gauze filter-that might be full of sludge-treat the insides of the carb like a surgeon would with a heart transplant! what colours the spark plug?? (white, digestive buscuit brown, or black?)

i had a hilux, lust made two frames out of angle lengths, sitting ontop of the bed sides, drilled three holes through the frame and bed, bolted a length to the rear window frame thingy, which bolted to the sides, a brace across the top, and a cros brace at the back to stop the sides moving like a parellagram, which had a wing nut on to remove for loading ect

be realistic-dumfries to MK-around 5hours via car-not exactly something youre going to want to be doing every weekend is it?? you spoken to youre current GF about it? may well be a cracking opportunity for her, but better than seeing youre son everyday/week? be selfish, stay within half hour of him

never takes more than 45min to install one brace, once you get into a routine!

yes, and no for instance, the oak in my pics, was reduced and braced (new bracing not pictured) so that it could last another 5 years-as requested by the client, in which time its replacement will be established in my view bracing can also help limit the chance of a potentially hazadours limb ripping out-increasing the life expectancy/asthetics of the tree for, potentialy decades

why would you prune a tree for insurance reasons?
josharb87 replied to TJ_toast's topic in General chat
to reduce the risk of subsidence/tree falling onto house/roots damaging foundations/branches hitting roof, guttering ect -
. . . breakem, an start runnin

plastic bits you slide into the bracing where it wraps round the stem/branch, youll have a sheath which protects the bark from the bracing to cover the bracing where the plastic bits are, the rubber dildo gets inserted into the middle-easer if you do this whilst its slack/before you wrap other end round branch tension is as tight as you can get it by hand thats how i do it!
