  12. i have always been brought up to work really hard by my dad any day of was spent with him since i was 5 and even then i was expected to help in some way and was always told i'd get a thick ear or no dinner if i didn't and even though it would never happen i still helped doing little jobs like fetching nuts and bolts my friends know i am going to college next year i get so much ridicule for wanting to do a practical job and not become a music director or artist one guy i know is persistant that anyone can drive machines or work hard but i know that he would be utterly hopeless and lazy then he says that i should not be trusted with the machines at work even though i have been driving them since i was 5 and that if he did the job he could be trusted with them and do a better job and this caomes from loads of people they don't think these jobs take skill and practice and some of it natural talent coupled with the fact i have to sit through atleast 2 assemblys a week telling me you arn't worth anything if you don't have a gap year then spend one day a week at university until your 23
  13. if towing 2 with a tractor 1 has to be empty atleast that was the rules it allows farmers to tow a trailer and implement such as forage harvester and trailer or bailer and trailer i'm not sure what the rules would be if you did something like put a pick up hitch on a 3 point linkage chipper i think this would be different

  19. if anyone is interested plannings are good and you can get them for £60 an 8 wheeler load if your willing to meet the lorrys at the nearest motorway junction and guide them to your yard although to get that cheap you usually have to take a fixed amount of loads at night
  20. if anyones intereasted there is also this 150 on foley sv Landrover conversions by Foley Specialist Vehicles
  21. they are demolision tools really they are very difficult to hold still and don't give a presentable finish however if you ever need to do a serios amount of demolition work on any thing other than concrete they are the muts.
  22. there is something in one of the comercial vehicles magazines that all comercial vehicles over 3.2 tonne will be limeted and sugestion of digital tachographs to be fitted however it will not be backdated to older vehicles harry
  23. i have one of these Personalised Embroidered ( hoody ) Hooded Sweatshirt on eBay (end time 24-Feb-10 11:28:37 GMT) there really good quality and stitched in reather than printed would deffinately recomend them
  24. smart looking truck could anyone tell me the dimensions for the rear body please are they as big as 6ft by 10ft if not would it be possible to fit this size thanks
  25. for the parts i think it would be very complicated as it it would involve new gearbox then makeing a path for the prop to the rear and then installing a rear axle out off something rear wheel drive youd probally want an lsd diff in it aswell and imo the sprinter is nowhere near as good as the vw transporter the vw is much better quality bigger and more comfortable and has the option of 4x4 from new also i don't think the merc is available as a chassis cab if you want it for arb work finally for anyone whos interested the new AWD transit tipper is available this year genuine ford not a county conversion
