  1. What makes me say its destined for England and beyond is that according to the SNP, Scotland already has 100% capacity for wind generation for own use. I am trying to not be political, as it would not matter which party was in charge in UK or Scotland they would all be at it.
  2. WE NEED YOUR HELP Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks SSEN are planning a massive expansion of the overhead pylon and substation network up here, they do not care about ruining the enviroment and communities in the quest for profit. The pylons are going to be 60m tall carrying 400kV. Substation are to be in Caithness, near Beauly, New Deer and Peterhead, the one near us is in addition to three existing large ones nearby is to be an extra 200 acres. SSEN are going for the cheapest option rather than burying the cable or goin subsea. Once it gets to Peterhead it is taking the power via two subsea cables to England. In addition to this they are planning another 400kv line from Kintore via Tealing and then to Fife and onwards. This is a massive industrilisation of the reas and is the thin end of the wedge, as once the pylons are in the wind farms will follow onshore and offshore, look at the crown estate leases. SSEN have been asked to show the figures to justify the expansion and they refuse to release them Below is a leaflet we have prepared, share as you wish, for our area. Can everyone comment on the proposals and just say NO to SSEN, write to MP's MSP Thanks in advance. #Justsayno
  3. What size/ model of Hatz diesel? Depends on your engineering skills with grinder and welder
  4. Speak to Dave Ashcroft at Ashcroft transmissions, he will advise you.
  5. What engine are you thinking of chopping out. Fitted many different engines into land rover products over the years, Fords, Iveco, Mercedes, Perkins and Mazda.
  6. TractorData.com Valmet 665 tractor dimensions information WWW.TRACTORDATA.COM The above lists standard 665 4wd tractor tyres as Front 12.4R24 and Rear as 16.9R 34.
  7. Would it be worth a call to Withams as they sometimes sell them and may know more of the specs. https://www.bing.com/ck/a?!&&p=b819060449a1ada4JmltdHM9MTY4MDgyNTYwMCZpZ3VpZD0wZDIwMmJjZi1kOGNjLTYzZDEtMGZlMC0zOWE4ZGNjYzY1OTUmaW5zaWQ9NTE5Ng&ptn=3&hsh=3&fclid=0d202bcf-d8cc-63d1-0fe0-39a8dccc6595&psq=withams+mod+sales&u=a1aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubW9kLXNhbGVzLmNvbS9kaXJlY3Qv&ntb=1
  8. Also have watch ratio of rolling circumference front to rear, there will be an optimal ratio for this depending on the ratios in the gearbox. You need to have the front wheels pulling the rear along, not the front being pushed by the rear.
  9. You did a good body swerve there.
  10. Fieldings at Stowmarket may be worth a call. Agricultural Wheels & Tyres | Farm Tyre Services | Trailer Wheels FIELDENSOTRLTD.CO.UK Fieldens OTR Ltd, Suffolk, Manufacturers & suppliers of Agricultural wheels and tyres, Industrial, construction, farm tyre & trailer wheels UK
  11. Not long with a box of matches, but quite a whilst with a Gloria.
  12. AFAIK, your engine is a clamshell design with top of crankcase being cast as one with the cyllinder. If you put gasket paper on the joint you shoed in previous page, the only thing you would achieve would be loose bearings and seals. I stand to corrected. @spudulike

    And a standard 346 is a good saw as it stands.
  14. That was my thoughts as well, judging by some of the facebook comments
  15. I see the floor is as per most arb trucks, an oil slick, stops the transit rot at least.
  16. Thanks for that, but I would like to do it myself because I am like that.
  17. Opico Skidster. Looking for 2 sets of seals for the lift rams for my skidster, any pointers of where to get them from.
  18. A window would be my thoughts, wooden of course to be in keeping with the requirements.
  19. Doug are you allowed on FC harvesting sites with a bike helmet.....
  20. what I know as a monkeys fist, make them for dog throw toys, from retired climbing rope
