  2. Yep mixed driving & towing the chipper. The only problem I had was with the fuel filter but this was a recall & did it for free. I've done 45k miles now & it has not missed a beat! I had a service done last week oil, filter etc.. & the front pads done for £190! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  3. Yer its the 3.0 manual great truck properly the best Ive had. does about 31 mpg (425 miles to a tank) pulls really well very quick for a truck. Loads of room in the truck & the back seats. Does not know the chipper is on the back & will pull over 2 ton nicely
  4. Here is my setup U1000 & The Hilux is the setup i am running at the moment. The landy & Van are two of my old trucks.
  5. I brought 2 pairs of your trousers a few weeks back & they are fantastic look forward to having a look at the rest of your kit Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

  9. I've been using this glove AT1500 XT Work Glove has been lasting really well.
  10. <p>Hi Yer they are the stop and reverse buttons on the forst I think they use the same sort on button on the doors for the underground trains. I find that they are great! I've now done 200 hrs with them and not had a problem yet I think they are one of the best systems. If you guys had something smilier but mounted on the top (like you do already do) would be great.</p>

  11. If it's a direct debit you can stop the payment! If you paid by card & they are taking the payment that way every month all you have to do is cancel that card & order a new one. Your bank should stop any payments going out of your account. The only problem is if you stop making the payments they might get a debt collector after you :-( Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  12. Looks like a Caterham 7 to me ( road sport) depends on age it will be a ford cross flow but does not look that old so maybe a duratec engine. They stick 2 ltr engine in them @ about 260bhp (the r500 ) will do 0-62 in about 2.5sec!!! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App

  16. Spoke to redwood today & They are trying to get the machines in to get the problem fixed they are flat out! but it means a 7 hour round trip to take it back to there workshops Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  17. I've had a pair for a month now I really rate them i did put up a review about them but it has gone will stick it up again! They are light weight and comfortable! I had then on the other day when it was really warm & I noticed that they were a lot cooler! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  18. I've had one for a while now 185hrs A few problems: Drive link for the top roller snapped within 20hrs- redwood came next day & fixed it. Fuses kept blowing redwood came out & fixed it after a few calls. A problem with the lights now fixed. As said before throttle leaver moves & drops revs but after talking to redwood I stuck another 13mm bolt on it and has now solved the problem. But the biggest problem is the feed rollers jam up with crap really quickly & I have to clean it out twice a day some times. Redwood say they have a fix for This but they have not been out to sort it yet. (4 months now) Apart from the very small problems it's is one of the best 6inch chippers I have ever used & I would say I have owned or used all of them. If I needed to buy another chipper it would be a forst st6!!! Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
  19. Yes there are a few on the market Avant do one for there loaders don't know what there like Sent using Arbtalk Mobile App
