  1. Mine came from kmr , two years of abuse, no issues at all
  2. Not designed for volume but everyday items, socket set, Tool box with files , combi tools etc, 2 stroke wedges , winch lead blah blah Back pack blower goes in chipper , saws, climbing kits go in body side lockers
  3. Not best pic but can get everything in , with help of chassis lockers
  4. None of the above , I understand that I may need a tacho but why do I need cpc
  5. I use a riko fast tow trailer, have even been known to get x9 0.5m bags on before
  6. Thai was resting against pailing fence ET Home
  7. Hitch climber , was a big change initially as like you I had 10 years but in a spit tail and blakes hitch but worth the time and effort
  8. I've done it twice in 10 year, both times because I've took trees down, and blagged work, not sure it's a goer unless you would intend to own splitter regardless
  9. I'm thinking about selling my wood line 16 t vertical, pto runs off its own pump , splits 1 m lengths , or rounds Pm if you interested in details
  10. I've been using easybooks , estimates invoices , profit loss, balance sheet aged debt etc, complicated at first but does it all
  11. It's quite walloly , but just tasked it easy going into corner , going to try hd anti roll bar and poly bushes
  12. Think mine is 1200mm Has tilting roof to fire chip right back
  13. Never had an issue changing mine, had mine 8 yr, torque to 45 ftlb, copper grease first , clean out before a put bit in Know a lad who had to cut blades in half so he could remove stripped head Prevention better than cure
  14. If you don't have access to grinder, we've used a farm jack/High lift jack, make sure you can get enough chain on them to gain a good grip

  18. The jockey wheel has a scale , adjust it to it reads about 100-120 kg It ways about 1100kgs without body ( timber bolsters in Crane lifts 360kgs with grab on but about 440 kgs without I've had some canny big logs on where
  19. Thinking about it, I stand corrected Its the trailer bed that moves not the axel so you are actually moving the load forward or back As for changing an ifor I'd have no idea, the fast tow has a single beam instead of a A-frame , best bit of kit I've bought Slightly better view
