  1. whats the list of kit that he's selling and what condition is it in i would only base your value on that the rest could be him over speculating to bum up whats its worth which may be not much use your head not your heart
  2. do you want us to build it as well and post it
  3. would it be possible to get tyres with a taller sidewall from another 4x4
  4. bollocks to that maybe thats why grinders were invented
  5. return filter blocked causing back pressure or a damaged fitting change to proper hyd pipe instead of crappy plastic tubing
  6. the uniforest grab does look okay heres the one we've got when it was new
  7. thats the one i thought it was quite poorly made with under spec steel as said it wagon a 350kg skid steer which is a dinky toy and it didn't last
  8. no we seen the riko grabs at the highland show and thought they were heavy enough but they don't look as heavily constructed or well designed as the one you found
  9. it was just the smallest grab that they done as it it was for a 350kg skid steer
  10. the last titan piece of crap that we got from screwfix had the fuel pipes round the wrong way and the thing would only run until half a tank then cut out try that as i don't think the quality control dept works many days in the titan factory i think it could possibly be every fifth full moon he may turn up just buy the echo fab engineered pieces
  11. get more pictures side on and have a look at the thickness of the steel on it we got ours from riko and it got twisted quite soon after some use also the pins on this are bolted in which is a better idea for replacement repairs etc if i had seen this first before i seen the riko one i would have bought this as its similar money
  12. when you see stuff like this in action it does seem such a waste of wood but its still impressive non the less
  13. landrover diffs are pretty poor you can see why the taliban stick with toyota
  14. mines is on quick couplings so the rotation of the hoses doesn't affect it you could fit them to see if it helps
  15. is it impact damage or over pressure check the way that the hoses are getting twisted when getting moved as this can loosen them it may help by fitting a banjo end on them
  16. fuel restriction clean out tank and make sure you get a good fuel supply run the engine of a drum of diesel if your in doubt is there a filter in the lift pump
  17. while were on the subject of roundup what ratio should i mix gallup 360 for general use cheers
  18. hows the wheel of death doing paul
  19. my mate got caught pissing at the side of the van he turned round and then noticed tea and biscuits on the garden wall nowt was ever said by customer and we went back next year to do more work:lol:
  20. we had the similar thing happen on one of our grinders easy fix i machined up spacers for the side of the bearings to lock them in place i also found it kept the crap out the bearings as well
  21. i was a diehard got to be hardwood chap until i fitted the boiler now i get softwood and flog the hardwood for better money why bother with hardwood it aint straight it splits harder and it doesn't stack as good. softwoods the king imo
  22. thats a well thought out set up very efficient
  23. i agree how many trees do you see windblown and still living quite well loads
