  1. On the video the hopper looks small and the branches are well snedded out . .
  2. Could root pruning be an option to prevent further poison transfer? (a trench dug between the stump and live tree)
  3. I used to use quads for rounding up cattle, fencing and coppicing, another guy a crosser, he was always comming off when ragging it, or just not paying attention counting stock, i slowly tipped once when powersliding on wetgrass into a hole though:blushing: but extreme offroad angles, id say a quad is far easier to be safe on With fuel cans, couple of saws, toolkit, extra clothes, first aid pack, felling aids, pull rope maybe, handwinch maybe, i would never consider 2 wheels - and i love bikes!
  4. Can i ask why not a quadbike?? more rack space and onboard load weight, capable of towing, pulling trees, fitting winches . . .
  5. And welcome to the real world
  6. Infact Cerne, perhaps this is a government conspiracy to collect names of all potential trouble makers . . . oo'er, paranoia now?
  7. You might want to think a little more (or less) IF this were true, do you really think this 'sneaky' government would read a hippys petition, do a U turn and be good
  8. Hi BTS, The 130 double cab is a good size for a tipper, pretty simmilar conversion as i done to mine, but the tipper chassis may make the original hicap tub sit and look a bit high, you might need to fabricate the frame with shallower height of box section. treequip, a member on here converted a 110 hicap to a tipper with the original body, he put a thread of it on here, search his profile. personally if making it for chip, id sell the hicap tub, do a tipper conversion simmilar to mine and make a simple cube shape chipbox

  9. EU delivery £9.95?? WOW! for any size order? Goodluck
  10. Rich, i had the same on my 130, changed the drive flanges, aframe ball joint, prop ujs, all lessened the nock, then new rear diff (found a bargin in a garage) really helped, next to change was the gearbox layshaft (i think) but sold it first Theres so many parts that if all slightly worn, will make a big amount of play. mine was mainly from worn rear parts-found this by removing the front prof, driving in difflock, still big symptoms, removed rear prop, in difflock, not so bad hope this helps
  11. Hypermotard, nice! Keep the triumph, i sold mine then brought it again a year later despite not living in the country!
  12. Is it a clunk when changing or a clunk when putting power on? ie, slowing down with engine braking then throttle?
  13. on the other hand i think the picture of the carved tree shows perfectly how mans mark dissappears, its a very strong picture imo
  14. My 1971 S2A landy was on a 78 plate - into S3 yearage, as thats when it left the RAF, maybe this mog is ex MoD?
  15. Interesting place for the spec on a live Acacia. nice to see no bart simpson haircuts!
  16. Nice trees, Hope you went back up for the rip on the stub in the middle of the last pic!

    poor pay

    Yeah but this industry is about what you can do and experience, not what you're ticketed to do. and its not exactly hard to get the basic tickets is it! Very rare to see a job advertised with no experience needed. itd be a fantastic start to someones CV, the pay is low, so perhaps better suited to a 'teen living at home' its not the employers fault if youre old with bills-infact an eager 18yo newbie is possibly a better bet for an employer than a 40yo old newbie. im sure theres also chance of a magical thing called a payrise too!
  18. Thats awesome what the hell is it? looks like the GMC ironside on steroids!
  19. You do realise Rob (rainford) that a girl saying she has a fella is a clear f-off, but a guy saying he has a girl is a guy hinting at a threesome
  20. that or a tight pair of shoes
