I have an RSL engineering grab now on a 3 tonner and its far more up to the job- iv given it some serious punishment shifting piles of big granite bolders and its held up very well, they were at the APF show and the one on the 1.5t also looked much better than the digbits one I had.. RSL engineering are well worth a look ,Richard Is a very helpful fella . I use the thumb and ripper tooth which has been the DOGS BOLLOCKS Ste

Turned into a easier job than i expected thanks to Billy Wind blowing in the right direction away from road so set fire to the lot ,had a tracked chipper on Hire just in case . New Hedge planted 3 years ago to replace the old hedge on the new land he has bought . Twisted the customers arm in leaving the Standing Dead Wood when i explained the amount of life that exists in there plus a bit of a focal point .. The RSL ripper tooth excelled in this job too.

In the brochures they push it has a City van and its turning circle is like a Tx taxi literally so that may explain its shininess to grass. My other option is I have a older model L9 52plate which I bought has a temporary(LITERALLY TEMPORARY blew engine in 3weeks) van while I rebuilt mine after a crash is too whizz the diff out of that but it is a slight whine off that and I am sure that had a LSD ,just don't fancy doing that .

Yep definitely one wheel drive ,on one occasion parked in machine mart car park it got a light dusting of hail stone and I was stranded !! Have tried some very mild tread m&s tyres but still useless compared to my old twin wheel LDV it would go anywhere with a light touch of the handbrake but that does not work on Iveco either . Ste

Has much has i love my van IVECO Daily L10 it is possibly the worst van for getting stuck ......................it has a open diff fitted unfortunately and the slightest thing ie wet leaves and grass i am stuck ,embarrassing it is when i have to winch myself off a bit of wet grass . So i have been hunting down off road tyres but they are few and far for 15" rims with 8ply rating but came across these on FLEE BAY item number 271532136211 . Re-TREAD I KNOW BUT ANYONE else know of any others brands . [ATTACH]170517[/ATTACH] Ste
