  1. Im confused with all these numbers do we think it would fit on the dual wheels or not? Ive always been told i couldnt have offroad tyres because they would rub. Maybe they would be closer together and stop getting dirty great big flints stuck inbetween the dual wheels! They sure make a bang when they fly out!
  2. Ill be very interested to no if they do fit mark as i need to get 2 new tyres at the mo and would like offroadish tyres on the back to help abit!
  3. No different to a normal transit for ride comfort on a bumpy lane then
  4. Heres one from last year sometime, while i was in process of fitting a side tool box not finished hence the ratchet strap holding the sides down. .
  5. i no my mate just bought a landy 130 he had a brand new ali planked box on the back its 8ft by 6ft approx and that cost him £3500 ladder rack barn doors etc
  6. For a wire flipline id just find the length you want and buy the cheapest there all the same really just different colours and patterns ive got 2 new england fliplines they are a few years old and perfectly fine.
  7. I have only ever had velcro pads never had a issue with them as said above i store them closed while not in use. I would get the ones with velcro top and leather bottom strap as the velcro bottom strap is useless i wish i could change my bottom strap to leather!
  8. Ahhh hes got 130bhp now in that and lighter he was flying! Heated seats also so he will be warm i want one!
  9. Just been to birmingham to drop my mate off to collect his new landy 130 tipper got ramsey winch on the front, brand new ali tipper with barn doors i hated his old 1 but this is nice! .
  10. Awesome mission that silky! I completed the game ages ago always online now if ur on xbox add me BIG GUNS737 a arb match sounds a good laugh!!
  11. Dont think you would see much other than dead ivy i shall see what i can get though
  12. Finally got everything all sorted for this job, no end of emails, phone calls etc etc they wont allow traffic lights but will allow a static lane closed off so i will have the whole day to dismantle the roadside sections till im 1000% its going in the field. Lets hope all the organising comes off for the 6th december. Traffic control came in at £1150 so not that bad really.
  13. Titan pro i cant fault mine or my mates got the same never fails to run and do the job bargain at the price there asking!
  14. In the first 1 you look like david seaman
  15. I dont envy you at all. i hate storm damage work everything about it apart from you get a lil buzz when your getting the gear on the truck and on the way there other than that i hate it.
  16. Heres some pics of the pop from today lovely sunday for me...
  17. Anyone else been busy this weekend with the winds and heavy rain? Saturday i had a little tree to sort out could push it roots were shot on it. Today ive spent 4 hours on my own clearing a big pop off a road got to go back and sort the oak out and ring up all the firewood arkward tree over 2 gardens the road 3 hedges and 2 ditches full to the brim with water.
  18. had a nice job to do today, filmed all the fells, they were straight fells with a winch from the landy, i felled the first one but being ash there horrible get all tangled etc so i said ill just go up and strip them out and leave the timber standing out the way, we were ment to leave all the brash on the bonfire that went out the window half way through the first one left abit as you can see but easier to just go through the chipper! so the 3 standing stems in the pic took us 2 hours to get stripped out and chipped would have taken almost double the time straight felling them and trying to sort out the mess.
  19. Thinking the same, but now i think about it it used to be a massive stately home but is now a care home which has been extended in everyway so that tree would have been in the middle of a wood. Maybe it was naturally done, or a mad gardener experimenting This place has such a wide varied selection of mature trees massive trees some rare trees aswell gareth tells me some tree guy from europe well known is making a trip there to look at the trees forget his name now though.
  20. Thanks for that david. I would just like to know why someone would graft a tree onto a rotten stump, or would this happen naturally? Never really seen to many grafts or know anything about them.
  21. A couple gareth sent me when he first looked at it. Out of interest david what would you be looking for to find out if its a graft or not? What would be the reasoning also as its always going to have a serious fault on a stump like that.
  22. Unfortunatly not david, not my job the guys going back with a teleporter to rip that and a few more stumps out. I would have cut through it if there wasnt a metal chain in where the new meets the old can just see it in the pics i think.
  23. Climbing for gareth again today on an interesting sycamore totally knackered old stump regrown into a new tree im guessing just exploded when it hit the deck. 3 ton of woodchip off it and 8/10 ton of wood off it.
  24. I can think of a few ways you could do it none of which i could saving much time as you have to go up it to cut it so just fell the top off or strip it right out wouldnt take that much more time. Still a cool trick though.
