Can`t help with removing the master cylinders, but I seen to recall that they don't use normal brake fluid.

Some one has all ready been there sort of, not on a mini but similar idea to above, priestman vc long reach machines half drag line half excavator, so its possible in principle.

"When combined the new vehicle created is over 3500kg. But they exempt trailers under about 1000kg kerb weight . that rules most out any way" Sorry for the confusion, I read what you wrote as most trailers would be ruled out of the exemption, implying his trailer and most others where over the 1020kg unladen weight. Reading it again and knowing now we are both talking about the same thing to me it now reads, that rules most out of operators licencing any way.

It would still depend on use.

He said his trailer is 810kgs unladen Motor vehicles and trailers You’ll need a goods vehicle operator’s licence for a motor vehicle and trailer combination if: the motor vehicle and the trailer(s) are plated and the total of their gross plated weights is more than 3,500 kg the total unladen weight of the vehicle and trailer combination is more than 1,525 kg You don’t need an operator’s licence if your trailer’s unladen weight is less than 1,020 kg and you only carry your own goods. From the gov.uk link

He said he`s got a B+E licence, so it`s OK for up to 3500kgs vehicle & 3500kgs trailer. If he only had a B licence it would be up to 3500kgs combined vehicle and trailer weight. The hilux is under 3500kgs gross so no O licence for that. The trailer is 3500kgs so no O licence, depending on use (own goods, or hire and reward). https://www.gov.uk/being-a-goods-vehicle-operator Tachograph depending on use and distance from base. If you work for the company, it`s their responsibility to sort the o licence not the drivers.

If your thinking of a loader as well, the same will be a lot more manoeuvrable than the massey, (steering lock).

Basically to let locals know you want to operate goods vehicles from the premises, and give them a chance to object or rise issues about your application.

I remember reading about a few months back in a dvsa news letter, saying it would apply for non agricultural use, then it went on to say about the numbers it expected to be tested, and it was quite small, 200 - 300 if I remember right. With that small number I`m guessing its agricultural machines, that are taxed/registered for commercial use.

I`ve got a 1/2" drive Makita 18v, had it quite a few years with no problem. The 1/2" air wrench hardly ever comes out now, the cordless with a well charged battery is similar in performance. The newer brushless ones are a higher maximum tightening torque, and that's what I`ll buy as a replacement if needed. All my other cordless stuff is 18v Makita, so that plays a big part all using the same batteries.

If your just moving timber or other products for yourself, you would just need a restricted operators licence, moving timber for some one else, you would need a standard national o licence.

Funnily enough on mine the abs and esp light came on the other day, after the hearing the abs modulator working while stationary a couple of minutes after starting, a 2013 3.2 limited.

Thanks for the answer Steve, good luck with your new project. Hope you still have time for a good Christmas/new year!

Is the a Christmas raffle this year? Don`t know if I've missed a post about it, or just can`t one find one about it. Thanks

Have you sent these pictures to the dealer/ifor Williams? I wouldn't be happy with that at sub 12 months old, a bloke I know had a new type tipper like your when they first came out 4-5? years ago, and looks nothing like that. We are in an area that has a lot of salt put down in winter, his yard is on a trunk road and a main gritting route. We`ve got a ifor here that must be at least 25 years old that's not that bad.

I go to view latest posts on the activity button, it brings the list of new posts up ok, I`ve selected go to first unread post and saved that in my stream, and it works fine and I finish reading that thread, but when I go back to the unread posts page the settings have gone back to the first post in an unread thread.

Horrible news. My condolences to you and family.

I think the 10 tonners, have 8 stud axles, the older ivecos which had the model numbers in between the upper and lower side windows where something like, 75e150 (7.5ton 150hp) had 6 stud axles, and factory down rated 10tonners where 80e150 (can have other hp ratings) and had 8 stud axles.

Best wishes for a quick and full recovery.

The metal pipes are replaceable relatively cheaply, a good hydraulic supplier will have straight lengths of the pipe and fittings with olives, if you can get access to a pipe bender your sorted. I`ve replaced quite a few on my crane from the leg control valve to the legs, the pipe was either 10 or 12mm od, got the same size from the hydraulic supplier, took the old ones off, and copied them with the new pipe using an adjustable hand held pipe bender.

As for I`m aware you have to do the red first.

Condolences to his family

Does your parish council/community have a web site, with the minutes of the meetings? A bit of digging could tell you what they paid last time.

If it is the older single drum type with 2 legs rather than a butt plate, I think if it is a single drive chain from pto to drum it`s 3ton and a duplex chain is a 6ton. not sure if there where other size winches in the range I`m thinking of.
