  1. U140's have a sprinter engine & clutch - we had a u90 AG spec a few years go. Great bit of kit, let down by the sprinter engine.... Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case
  2. Ask the ranger to still do that in 5 years time! Defenders don't devalue, retaining more than any other light 4x4 commercial. With the right tyres, air lockers in both axles, defenders are unstoppable! Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case
  3. Have a chat with Marc at The Defender Center (http://www.exmod.co.uk), he has a lt of ex utility 110 / 130's that can be converted to tipper very easily and for not a lot of money. The tipping body for my 130 was about £2K. Matt Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case
  4. Blindos? Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case
  5. I have a life systems first aid kit & the Jext pen sits at the top, hidden behind the seat in my Defender out of the sun Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case
  6. Could be worse, if I get stung I've got to use this.... Gives me a 15 - 30 minute window to get medical help....or I'm in real trouble.... Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case
  7. I blanked the EGR in my td5 & removed the cat - breathes lot easer & throttle responses are better. Sounds throaty as well...(although remap probably helps!) Sent from my iPad protected by bombproof Lifeproof Case
  8. Land Rover Defender TD5 130 Single cab tipper with JE Engineering Stage 1 remap, Hydraulic system for log splitting, air lockers for when it gets gooey.... Never gets stuck, reasonable mpg - circa 30 mpg, don't even notice the trailer when towing! Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  9. The Breakfast Club, Ferris Buellers Day Off, Weird Science come to mind... Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  10. Or the RIKO fast tow trailer with a crane - it has an adjustable load bed so that the nose weight never exceeds legal max. Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  11. Talk to Marc at the Defender Centre, they have great selection of utility 130 / 110's that can be converted to tippers, at very reasonable prices! Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  12. Here's a light load......, there was a bit more to put on after this.... Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  13. Hi Lee, we have an Antonio Carraro all terrain Alpine tractor equipped with a Muthing MUE 160 mulching flail, that is available with an operator. Email me for more information: [email protected] regards, Matt Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  14. Look at AC Price unimogs website, they are selling an Ifor trailer with hiab professionally installed - needs to be towed by a land rover or similar. Matt Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  15. We have an Antonio Carraro TTR 4400 equipped with a Muthing MUE160 mulching flail, it's being used for vegetation management, firewood processing and soon, small scale skidding operations. For us it ticks all the boxes: compact, great stand spec, reversible, reliable. The only other thing you could consider is a Reform 4GX bank tractor: 4ws, 4x4, low centre of gravity, low impact.... Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  16. Speak to the experts at JE Engineering, they have been tuning land Rover products for over 30 years. I've got a stage 1 remap on my 130 td5 - 175 bhp & 375 NM, cost about £275. Matt Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  17. Call Nigel Baddley at Kentdown Mushrooms - he hires out a big Haki with operator - you just need to provide a tractor & some labour to load the processor. Very reasonable rates! Tel: 01474 703164 or 07803024726. Matt Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  18. Floppy mowers lol! Check out the Mulag MGM650 gang flail mower on YouTube! Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  19. iPhone 5 in Lifeproof 'Fre' case. Just watch the videos on the website to prove it http://www.lifeproof.com. Matt Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  20. Defender 130 Td5 tipper with JE Engineering Stage 1 remap for business. Mercedes A160CDI Auto for pleasure. Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  21. Looks like the Multi-hog, which is probably a better option. Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  22. With lots of motorway / dual carriageway work last week, I got 400 miles out of our 130 td5 tipper, before the low fuel light came on..... Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  23. You could try Blaster - is a broadleaf herbicide for weeds in amenity turf and woodlands. We have used it with brilliant results to control nettles at the Royal Gunpowder Mills, Essex. Got it from ALS in Shropshire - about £45 per litre. Matt Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  24. Try George Browns at Leighton Buzzard or Richard Whitbread at RJW Machinery at Wyboston (http://www.rjwmachinery.com). Matt Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
  25. We have a G18 & G21, if budgets allowed I would get a new G26 with shaft driven 48 or 54 inch deck - more ground clearance, more power, no belts to change! Sent from my iPad encased in a bombproof Lifeproof Case
