i thought they must of been knocked in as i couldnt see any traces from augering or digging. i thinks its a good option to offer people as a low cost alternative to mortised post and rail as its less labour intensive. well done for hand knocking them in too, down here ground is like concrete, i was snapping 8inch diameter posts last week whilst knocking them in

-
never seen cleft rails nailed on the faces of the posts, how well does it hold?

air in the hydraulic steering system making it heavy?? try jacking up the front and steering it from lock to lock for a few mins and see if any air bubbles appear in the reservior.

not worth the hassle, by the time u mount the hiab,grab and rotator and stab legs there is gonna be most of your payload gone, few timber poles mounted properly on the bunk and all ur gonna be able to carry on it is the ticket from the old bill saying ur overweight and that ur cabstar belongs in a mad max movie looking like that!!

always wanted to go, 4 of us were gonna make the trip last year but money issues put pay to that. those converted wagons are big bucks, my friend who competes in british mx1 championship has one of those big american ford v10 dual fuel campers. absolute luxury!!!

i know what you mean about having one for motorsport, usually we end up sleeping in the van with the bikes and kit but when we did the dawn til dusk enduro last year one of our mates took a big caravan and it was a revelation being able to sit at a proper table and cook proper food rather than eat bags of crisps with your feet up on the dash! How was erzberg this year?

doesnt have to be a new caliper, see if you can get a replacement piston and seal kit first. if the piston isnt available sseperately then get some very fine emery and gently polish any corrision off it being careful not to linish the same aread too much and create a flat spot
-
brake pads could be binding on the pins which retain them to the caliper, alternatively the piston on the side which isnt contacting could be seized

where abouts it the job rik??

yeah they common scraper tractors because of their size and turning ability. mine is early 60's i think, the previous owner had done a total bare metal overhaul and used to show it. we mow about 60 acres a year with it as well as powering a little rotoravtor. lovely little machines and nice and easy to work on

nice find mate, i like seeing old vintage tractors. i got a mint vintage massey 35 all restored which does all the mowing where i cant fit with the mog
-
i was wondering how the chipper was being fed, didnt realise the crane was mounted on the neck of the artic unit. i thought it was a seperate truck. nice kit on that job
-
does the wheel appear to have any camber when you look at it??bent stub axle perhaps? does it have independent suspension units or is it a complete axle? if it has the first check the bolts that secure it are not loose as it would cause movement and change the angle of the wheel
-

mine split after 6 months and were regularly cleaned and waxed, shame really as they are really nice comfy boots
