Cheers dumper. Have you got one? Be mainly used for shifting wood from the job. Stump grinder attachment might be a consideration in the future though.
-
Thanks for the reply. Found some old posts on the subject as well which have been useful.

I'm thinking about getting some sort of mini loader to help move wood from the job to try and save doing it all by hand. Basically loading it into the tipper or trailer. Thinking of a mini loader so could still access back gardens. Been having a look around and wondered if anyone has any experience of these. Saw that you can get a stump grinder attachment and a log splitter attachment. We don't do a lot of stump grinding and just hire one in when needed but thought it might be a handy bit of kit if any good. Any thoughts would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Here's my two. Both mental but wouldn't be without them.

That's good to know, cheers.

My older Iveco I've got at the moment is a 3 litre which pulls great. Would you stay away from the 2.3 litre version?
-
Thanks for the advice. It's the first time I've had more than about £4000 to spend on a tipper,set up the business just under five years ago. Might look into an Iveco.

Just wondered what people's opinions are of the Cabstar tippers? Had a transit before and now have an Iveco but going to need a new (for me) not brand new tipper soon. Got a budget of up to £15000. Thanks in advance.

Got a budget of about £5000. Vehicle will be used for pricing jobs and occasionally towing trailer full of wood on bigger jobs. Looking at a vehicle that's not a pickup, thinking of something like a Shogun Sport or Discovery. Does anybody have any thoughts or recommendations? Thanks in advance.

I'll have a better look. Thanks for your help.

Similar to that heavy duty door retainer but there's a bit you can attach to the side of the tipper body that it clips into.
-
Does anybody know what those latches are called that enable you to keep the rear barn doors open by clipping them to the side of the tipper body when tipping chip? Thanks in advance.

We're taking down four Ash trees in Penrhyndeudraeth North Wales in the first week of December. The trees are roadside and probably about 3 to 4 transit loads in each tree. The trees need to be sectionally felled so won't be any long lengths. The trees are going to be taken down over four days but wood will have to be removed each day as traffic lights are being removed overnight and there's not much room to stack the wood. If anyone wants the wood and can collect it give me a shout.

Thanks for the replies. I'll give them a try

I need the electric window switches for both drivers and passenger side along with the window motor for the drivers side for my crew cab Daily tipper. I've spent ages on the Internet and phoned a bunch of breakers yard but can't find them anywhere. Does anyone know of a breakers or parts company that might be able to help. Cheers, Nathan

Hi Puffster, thanks for the offer but my girlfriend has sorted something out already. Hope you get it sold.
-
Thanks for all the advice. It's just for my girlfriend to use as a car really as the track up to the new house is pretty uneven.
-
Hi, not strictly an arb truck question but I was just after a bit of advice. We're moving to a new house which is approached via a bumpy farm track so my girlfriend is looking at getting a 4wd. Budget is about £4000. We were thinking about a Rav 4 but interested to know what people think of them or any other suggestions. Thanks in advance. Nathan
