  1. No it was stock ones fitted fine. Could not recommend this set up enough.
  2. On my old tipper I had the heaviest duty Brit part springs with helpers at rear raised it by 1 inch or so. Poly bushed and with gas shocks. I tried various set ups but this was the best.
  3. I got them all round as you can still get effected by the front tyres so by having the same self cleaning open lugs it helps. My cabstar is fantastic with them on. It's been raining for a few days and I ve just driven up a grassy hill on wet soft ground empty towing trailer with stumpy on the back with no skidding. Also they cost £60 each when I got them.
  4. Who cares if your allowed its awesome.
  5. All you need is some kumho 856 s all round or some general eurovan winter tyres. I ve used both and they are fantastic.
  6. Can t drive two motors at once and it's just sitting there. It's been a great truck and I don t need it.
  7. Put my 110 on arbtrader the other day. It deserves a good home.
  8. Hi guys looking again pm me or call if interested.
  9. Boulter tippers tadley Hampshire or Solent body builders
  10. Go here and you ll get the bits for a new box for a fraction of the one tw want. I got mine supplied and fitted for £80. They gave me a number of a local guy. It was about 4 years ago when I had a tw. WF Senate - Rexel UK
  11. Tried loads so far. Now using a cycling jacket by sportful so far it's brilliant nice light she'll and really good breathability. Very tough material. It does ride up abit on the back but I stay dry all day so who cares. I would buy another.
  12. <p>His names Andy Harris he will call you</p>

  13. <p>Hi mate I know a friend of mines selling a tp160 for that kinda money pm me your number and I ll get him to give you a call.</p>

  14. No issues so far have taken it off road quite abit. I have general euro van winter tyres all round which transform it. Also had heavy duty springs like found on the 4.5 t cabstar so it carries the weight better. Had 2 transits before I won t get another
  15. Boulter tippers in Hampshire did mine. I already had the tipping gear but I am sure they could do it for you. Cost 3k with barn doors at the rear.
  16. If it has to be tracked look at the jo beau or the Vermeer 252 now called 292 if tracks are not neededThe 30tx is just a skidster modified but with out enough power the 252 is a dedicated stump grinder and much better machine
  17. As the title says looking for groundsman. Ideally qualified in ariel rescue. Please pm me your rates and contact details.
  18. I sure do
  19. I ve generally been pretty much anti stein but the krieger i ve had over a year and only look a few weeks old. Normally have stretch airs which are awesome but these have really impressed me the zips are fine and pockets have not worn through yet.
  20. Had recently bought a new petzl sequoia but it unclipped on me a few times with there cheap buckles. Had no faith so got the stein vega plus spent a days dead wooding oaks in it and I found it to be a great harness. I generally dislike stein gear but they are getting better with quality gear.
  21. Try the stein krieger s instead. I be had mine over a year been fantastic considering its stein gear. Had sips these are lighter and very hard wearing
  22. Nissan cabstar 4.5 ton 4x4 it's like a modern day land rover forward control. Shame we can t get them here. I ve got a 3.5 t cabstar put the same rear springs as the 4.5ton version and some great winter all terrain tyres all rd it's near to the perfect arb truck for me at least for now. Tows great and carries weight brilliantly.
  23. Yep it's on way back to Lyon. The retailer could see the issues
  24. Has anyone had issues with the petzl sequoia unclipping up the tree. Has happened 5 times now and is easy to do by wiggling buckles. It's going back tomorrow not impressed.
  25. Hi guys I recently bought the new version on this. It will be going back because 5 times either a leg loop has become inc clipped or the waist strap has. 1 time both did luckily I was standing on some thing quite substantial. It happens when moving about the crown and is easy to do by wiggling the buckles. Has anyone else had issues as this is really bad.
