  1. sure theres gonna be a chance to get upto so mischeif today
  2. how i translate it is landys have around a 1t payload, (youd better check!) and 3.5t towing capability so if you have a trailer licence, you can chuck 1t in the back, and tow upto 3.5 t. with youre licence however, you can only put upto 1t in the landy, so long as the landys weight (with load) stays under 3.5t, and tow the chipper, bringing you to 4250kg but if the landys got a tipper conversion, this eats into the payload too think thats right. sure someone will confirm/deny
  3. only a tonne?! will get the spare half shafts ready too . . .
  4. ok, i'll park our 18 tonner in a ditch and get the old series 3 out

    Cobra??

    do about 2-4 braces a month. makes a nice change, especially when shouting from the tree "ive dropped my black dildo" (my name for the shock asorber)
  17. touched on the B+E when doing my rigid test. dont, whatever you do, clip, mount or scrub a kerb youre gonna have to reverse the arse end of the trailer into a 1m hatched area other than that (aslong as your vehicle+trailer neets requirements) its piss easy apparantly

    Cobra??

    cobra is pretty easy to use now, theyve changed the shock asorbers material so you dont need lube anymore, likes been said above, electrical tapes a good substitute to the shrink wrap done much bracing before?
