  1. Hi mate how you doing - yep it goes on easy, I have the ali ramps so a bit lighter than the standard ones, even managed to squeeze a 8" tracked Jensen on there
  2. It's had a liquid cooled Garrett turbo replacement different boost pipes and reworked manifold .The injectors have been replaced there was also some new electrics with custom remapped ecu. It ran at 158hp (171hp stock) before work done and 262hp after ! Even though it runs daily at 225hp which is more than enough. It had excellent returns for fuel consumption giving me 27mpg around town and had 37mpg on a run as long as you keep it. At 70
  3. Here's mine Ifor Williams TT3017 tipper with 6000lbs winch, fully caged and Ali ramps. The forst fits on perfect even been known to squeeze on a bandit HB20 at the same time! Have no probs with stability when towing you hardly know it there sometimes my hilux has had a few engine upgrades and also remapped engine management system so around 250bhp. I had an 8"" Jensen towable and 140ho transit crew cab before this......I wouldn't change back!
  4. I'm surprised it hasn't been blocked yet !
  5. If you google it now some one has put it on as a PDF download !
  6. Even if you are going to conduct a simple test for instance planting trees for your customer, you are going to need some equipment such as pH test kit for soil and a Compaction test metre, take 5 tests across the subject area in a W shape testing at all points for :- Soil type pH Compaction If you really want to push the boat out look up Atterberg limits with regards to clay soils and plastic and liquid limits. You might need a microscope for the 'nasty' stuff and a microbiologist to interpret the findings
  7. Soil type, pH and compaction levels ?
  8. Articulated Mewp required to assist crane dismantle, need it to sit on road side a 15/20 meter machine should do, Anyone know of anyone operated or not ?
  9. I'm based in Exmouth and have a bandit hb20 ... Don't rent it out but can do you a deal so you can still earn on it if that helps, problem is round our way theres only really Brandon's and has that have grinders but you are probably looking at £100 pd plus vat for a small 9hp machine, that are really not up to much...pm me if you need more info mate !
  10. I wasn't sure it would cope with it... But it done us proud. And must point out that I had a small problem with the machine however Global recycling sent an engineer out to me within 24 hrs (I think he said he set off at 3am to get to me from Leeds to Devon) what Fantastic service...👍👍👍
  11. Ok anyone else do Arb work for the local church ? The question is do you 1 charge full rate for the works 2 formulate a discounted rate 3 do it for free 😱 What would you do for the man above !

  13. [ATTACH]145506[/ATTACH] we use this model, and use the bollard quite a bit it's easy to use on medium and big stuff, and we have snatched some big stuff in it ! We have used the winch a few times and it's excellent ! It's Getting used on Thursday to assist a 60 foot wind blown Lawson that we are going to try an sit back in its root plate before felling :-/.... All being well !!! The only extra I would like to get is the kerf bar that fits into the top of the back plate, but saying that we haven't had much movement of the system whilst using it !,
  14. Yep when I first took out my insurance in 2005 they wanted copies of the obligatory 4, I know they still have them because they asked for them again this year, until they found them in their system !
  15. You will probably have to complete your CS tickets before they will insure you for related operations !
  16. Trust insurance....I've used them for years for PL and machinery insurance, they specialise in Arb and Hort, personally don't think they can be beaten, only my view ....there are other insurance companies available
