  1. Eggs thats the sort of reply I get from Mrs Aspenarb Bob
  2. s0mE wOrk3rs aRe noT wOrth tHe m1nimUm wA6e thoUgh E6g. Some are worth double, I think ability dictates the rate of pay and the minimum working wage is just another tax on employers. Bob
  3. I would stay with the can for the moment and drag it down the road to start it. The sooner the better because watery diesel in a pump/injectors can cause damage. If the previous owner and yourself have been cranking the granny out of it there are probably no glowplugs working so dont waste time , it will probably start within a few yards and then you will know what you have.

    <p>There are four rb44`s up for grabs, three are the twin wheel 7.5 tonners and the other ex army. The ex army one is rust free and on the button, needs going over but is all there, may need a power steering pump fitted but thats about all, one of the 7.5 tonners was bought for a friend who has run into financial difficulties and wont be in a position to complete it, tipper body fitted with space between for a hiab ( not fitted or supplied) gearbox has the pump on , its just had a new cab fitted and painted but needs all the pipes ,wires connected etc. Another 7.5 tonner mechanically excellent but cab needs changing, another rust free cab will be supplied with this, tipper body available in the deal. One more 7.5 tonner either for resto or spares, cab shot but again a cab is available , not for the faint hearted but not a basket case. Can all be ag registered for you if needed.</p>

  6. :lol: Richard I cant for the life of me think what colour the arsend will be painted. Bob:)
  7. Our tipper trailer doors have lost their newness and broke after many years of excavator/telehandler abuse. Mick has boxed, bolted and plated the back of the trailer so he can weld some steel hinges and door closers. And started making up new doors in steel
  8. Am I the only one here thinking Alpine tractor and flail? Perhaps clear the site of scrub , dead or dying plants and prepare to replant as soon as possible. Matelot posed the valid question of Deer, are they a problem? Bob
  9. The very best of luck Paul, that`s a ballsy move. Bob
  10. You are not wrong, the other 101 which I kept is an ex Judge Dread wagon from Dunsfold Landrovers. Those were very badly fitted, I had the choice of keeping the body but they are a real lashup and I could not see a purpose for it. Having seen what old film props make these days that was clearly a mistake:bash:. The last time I looked Dunsfold landrovers still had a few of the bodies in the rack. Bob
  11. Thats a cracking job you have made of that:thumbup1: Is the 3.9efi and tall gears still in it ? Kin scary ride that thing Al that one above was weeks away from having a tipper body fitted and a coat of err ... blue paint
  12. If we never had Greenplant within spitting distance who take care of all our TW needs I would go for a Forst, I like the lack of plastic Bob
  13. A lad on here bought one of my 101`s, often wonder how he got on with it.
  14. We have a 14` dory type boat, it came with fish finder, 40hp yamaha outboard ,radio, lifejackets and trailer for about 2k. We only use it to ferry blokes and saws on the river, I dont think I would fancy a sea fishing trip in the thing. Its not that stable on rough river water:w00t: Bob Given the choice at sea I would put more trust in our all steel landing craft, its got buoyancy tanks at both ends and you wont be putting a hole in it.
  15. Trelleborg it is then Aaron Bob
  16. For ag or forestry ? Bob
  17. :lol: Mat it was one of my silly thoughts after reading Johns ( gray gits) dyslexiarb. Bob
  18. Perhaps keep the quote content a little vague as to method of removal. If you then decide to fell the tree when you have thrown some weight off it alarm bells wont ring in the customers tiny little time vs cost counter. Bob
  19. Joe its 93 or 94 with the lions share of 180k on the clock. It was looking a bit sad for itself and as you know you cant polish a turd but you can roll it in glitter, so we rolled it in glitter:laugh1: Some wings, door and paint, she`s good to go again
  20. Just treated the old dog to a new set of GG AT 2`s , the old ones were the wrong profile and destroyed the little bit of power it had. These have transformed both the ride and the gearing. Bob
  21. I thought all the older Unifogs were like that Bob
  22. What five Vespian days to one lesbian day:confused1: Is she a bit of a unit? Bob
  23. This was on face tube http://arbtalk.co.uk/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=211119&stc=1&d=1473712364
  24. Mick extended the tipper body and fixed all the tin worm. The sun came out so it got a clean up and paint. Barrie was right
