    Damn!

    My 130 has just had 2 new drive shafts and universal joints on the front and. The suspension link arm bushes. It does heavy work all year round. I would not change it for anything, it gets down narrow drives to chip or drop logs, gets in tight fields and narrow lanes and carries 3.5 (approx) of Woodchip. I wouldn't change it for anything.

  5. Maybe check how much meat is on the shoes....or take it to a professional. Sent from Outerspace.
  6. Ta, that's who I meant. Sent from Outerspace.
  7. Mike Smith on here might be the man to speak to. Sent from Outerspace.
  8. LoL Sent from Outerspace.
  9. I don't get why people blow on about it being the price it is. The 201 ain't great so if the 540 is better the surely its worth a few quid more, any equipment you buy is tax deductable so if its £10 dearer then that's £10 less tax you pay. If it was £10 cheaper that £10 will get taxed. Buy what you need to do your job and within reason don't worry about the price difference unless a big saving can be made. I know someone who as willing to drive to get a 150 to save a tenner but it would cost £15 in fuel to get there. Sent from Outerspace.
  10. Rob, where did u get the synthetic rope for it? If it was off eBay just beware, I had one like that as I recognise the hook and it broke the third time I pulled anything and it was nowhere near your 8000LB pull. I got a dyneema now rope after that and its awesome. Sent from Outerspace.
  11. That's the thing that discourages people from participating on a forum, stupid critisicism by plonkers. There is no need for it. Sent from Outerspace.
  12. Hope you get some joy from iveco. Looking forward to seeing pics of the monster. Sent from Outerspace.
  13. Fair enough Pete, I took it wrong. Sent from Outerspace.
  14. Ohh sorry I spoke! No need for such a flippant reply. If I had bought a van and it was as new as that then I would be taking it up with the manufacturer as they should not be corroding as quick as that. That's my opinion anyway. Sent from Outerspace.
  15. You would have thought they would be under warranty? Or do u not get a 3 year warranty on a truck? Sent from Outerspace.
  16. I feel for ya, you will have spent a few k getting her back on the road. Nightmare but worth it in the end. Sent from Outerspace.
  17. I agree. Sent from Outerspace.
  18. Awesome car Pete, that was my era of rallying, I loved the Audi and the 6r4 metro and the awesom rs 200. The Audi was the dogs though. Sent from Outerspace.

  20. Cool, I look-forward to see your finished machine. Sent from Outerspace.
  21. I've been sharpening up mine and the tungsten is worn back below the steel so I ground the steel back and the ground the tungsten sharp and they look grand, I will be trying them tomorrow. How do you sharpen yours? I don't mean with a diamond disc or green wheel:) Sent from Outerspace.
  22. I would be interested to hear how you came up with the shape if the cutter wheel:) Sent from Outerspace.
  23. He needs em bigger so his wallet can fit in. Sent from Outerspace.
  24. And they look propper gay! Sent from Outerspace.
  25. It's funny how different company's treat people, I got a call from someone at Arbinsure back in May, they wanted to give me a quote for P/L and E/L so I said ok. The Guy on the phone took my basic info and the said he would call me back to go through turnover etc and get me a quote, we arranged that he would call me back at lunchtime that day. Guess what? I'm Still waiting!! Sent from Outerspace.
