i bet that much chip looks like a piddly pile at the front haha, have you ever filled it? on private land of course..

nice straight line.. thats a big tranny!

do you need extra carrying capacity because the trailer doesnt carry enough? bigger trailer would be cheaper than £1600 if you sold the current one, then you could keep that lovely 90 clean, tidy and ready for bird transport..

heavy thread.. if i get like that i'll go bash a handfull of 6inch nails into random trees just to see if i feel better, i bet it feels really good..

there is a small landy garage in bradford that i nipped into a couple of years ago, the chap was modifying a hicap backend to fit to a 90, couldnt see the point personally, i like longer vehicles as theyre loads comfier and carry more:thumbup1:

what are you wanting to carry? firewood? if theres a chance you will need to carry more at a later date then maybe think about a 110,

nice, think i'd have parked the landy further away but its defo a stuntfell.

there was more than one lump of rock in there too..not small bits either,

good job you strapped the beast up, or it could have ended up like this.. never saw it coming - just split on impact..

nice..clip clop:thumbup1:

tell him not to have fires next to trees that he likes.. fire cooks the living tissue under the bark leaving it open to decay, the tree has tried to compartmentalise the rot and is trying to heal over the wound..

what was you nailing to superbikes? tyres on the opposition?

ive never fancied a tranny really.. more of a landy fan myself

nice job.. trailering laurel away instead of chipping saves you breathing in the bad stuff, is that a tippy trailer? bet its well useful.

did this little hedge a few weeks ago, lots of chip, used ladder in places to get a foothold between trees, took 2days..

we usually use some sturdy aluminium ones with a 3m high platform, or lean extension ladders against hedge, strop in and lean back.. loads of fun

have a look at the back of the transfer box on any landy, if its got a circular blanking plate bolted on then you can fit (easily) a power take off unit, however if you can find any units available please let me know.. i think the utility spec ones have a genny fitted to make electrickery..

dont forget that tinnies can explode with enthusiastic driving..

been doing this wierd shape hedge for a couple of years now, just a tickle so far but might suggest cutting it straight one day.. oh thats me doing my bestest pose, working my way up to a lunge oneday:thumbup1:

ravensthorpe, west yorks, amused me enough to snap..

whats that growing with the nettles in the last pic?

i keep playing with the idea of fitting a pto driven chipper into the back of a 110, chipping into a trailer giving you (with a tonne weight unladen trailer) a possible chip capacity of 2.5tonnes, the area around the chipper could be built into enough handy tool lockers to carry a lot of essential kit. landrover dealer tell me the pto for the 2.4 engine isnt signed off yet so cannot be used yet but im pretty sure a 200tdi would be well up to the task..

im taking my 110work truck, and my bro is bringing his v8 90..

Annual Land Rover show at Driffield Showground in East Yorkshire next weekend 8/9 May' date=' for them's thats interested. [/quote']

 

already ready for it.. i assume they will be using the offroad course across the road in the old army barracks?

when i was travelling round california a couple of years ago we used library for internet connection etc, there was some amazing books on the old logging, i hadn't realised how large scale the felling was.. there are still 'old growth' stumps everywhere
