  1. yes galvanised as standard on Australian military spec Land Rover Perentie - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
  2. haven't the brass neck for it but I know some people that are amazing at it like the guy that got a landy I looked at but didn't haggle he managed to get it from £1100 down to £350!! it was a series 3 the bulkhead was pretty bad shape but otherwise it was on a galvie chassis and had an overdrive fitted! man I wished I had the gift of the gab!
  3. on galvie chassis too
  4. LANDROVER DEFENDER 110 4X4 PERENTIE C/W 3.9 LITRE ISUZU ENGINE | eBay
  5. don't know who some fowk have worked with,but you do tend to get the feeling sometimes that ground staff are worthless good for nothing braindead morons plucked from the dole queue and should be talked about and treated as excrement on ones shoe!
  6. sooner ye get started the better really, nowt wrong with starting later but it gets harder
  7. aye everytime you look at yours it falls off
  8. How many times has the visor fallen off?
  9. apparently only worth £2.30 a brace!! 'Dangerous' chainsaws seized at Dover - Telegraph
  10. know a guy who lost a brand new excavator, went down so quick he had to use the roof hatch!
  11. guy I know who works cutting peat has trebles fitted to his tractor, id say if you are on peat finding ways to spread the weight are going to be the key issues
  12. that looks like what Thompson trees near me have on their valtra although not seen it up close, not sure about the chain though! im guessing there's a reason that's not the accepted norm on winches?
  13. I made one up from two of these type of pallets just spring off half the boards nestle the two together like meshing your fingers and use boards to brace it mucho cheapo or even free! cut loads of firewood on it no bother biggest thing for you re: your back is setting the right work height pallets might not be the best if you are quite tall though that's the only thing
  14. only really had experience of dewalt as a big brand (had cheapo ones myself but cheaps cheap ) and was quite impressed with it standing up to being dropped into a tank of water and coming out working fine!
  15. some great old footage here, yes i'm hungover ok
  16. yep good 'n' powerful , gearboxes are crap though well not the box itself exactly but the cable linkage bit like a stick in a bucket of swill!
  17. driven by anyone can be a weapon regardless of age, and if you can drive a 44ton hgv at 18 why not a tractor? lets face it there are plenty people who shouldn't be behind the wheel of a car! it's the person not the age
  18. guess it depends on the police suppose all you can do is put in a request, damned unreasonable really when a cat 3 load can only do 40 on motorway, yet a fastrack is denied for one mile! sigh probably a lot to do with agricultural tractor still meaning likes of a wee grey fergy to the pen pushers
  19. krpan 8.5t Winch Krpan 8,5 EH - Krpan bit here about pto http://www.vitli-krpan.com/en/winch/novelties
  20. im sure you can drive ag machine on motorway if you are doing works and police have been informed of it
  21. same as a bmc mini?
  22. dunno about a 141 but a 191 the front pto runs the opposite direction krpan winches have two shafts for front/rear usage you simply swap over a cover
  23. oh i'd say gravity has that one wrapped up too
  24. believe it or no but at 28 I can honestly say I have NEVER had a games console in my life!
