Could you make 2 that are smaller. Route might be the thing start at easiest steeep bit to get to want work down
Whays the budget
I was going to suggest a 35 rather than a 4x4 but sounds like you have tried that. My next suggestion would be a SWB Terrano but having had both for many years (still got both actually) I think my 35 will go more places than the Terrano.
One hell of a place you have there John! From previous posts I knew it was a bit extreme but that is a fantastic pic. Not sure I would want to try farming it though.
Have you tried for any stewardship schemes then walls would look great rebuilt like new
A caravan chassis on normal caravan wheels will feel like you're towing a lot more than a ton on ground like that!
first thing i would do is get a better axle on it , caravan will beach on every rock outcrop , need good clearance or you will rip the floor out in no time , be better to make up a shepherds hut , you can let it out for holidays if the chickens go wrong lol
Would you not be better off with a old horse box
Would you not be better off
A bogey axle would be best thingBeautiful place , the yank tourists would love a bit of rural tourism on a place like that . Tell them it inspired “ inishfree” from the Quiet Man , and that John Wayne played cards with your Grandpa!
Then sell em some eggs out a gypsy type cart, and have some stay in a gypsy caravan!
Or not !
If it’s right boggy, could you get a twin axle quad bike trailer Chassis or 2 for a base. They would carry over the ground way better than a caravan!
That’s what I meant, go anywhere u like with that !A bogey axle would be best thing View attachment 907288
the most redneck thing I’ve seen in a while. I think I’m in love...Terrano...
I was given it.
Met the plasma cutter early on, carries round bales etc.

Or even get a horse to drag them around?
The old boy who was on our place before us ( he died in 1985) never bought a tractor, used a horse where he could, box cart on fat pneumatic wheels, dickie hay turner, hay rake etc. He had a sledge made of corrugated iron for use in the snow when he had a milk round. Just wondering if two wide long skids made of corrugated iron, turned up at the sides as well as the ends wouldn't pull easier than wheels, and the ribbing would help stop sliding sideways?Actually a pair of ponies/horses is something we're considering today, though it would mean a total redesign of the eggmobile itself (including to incorporate a higher axle as suggested by someone), it could be a good idea for the tourism side as I'd seen mobile milking parlours (tiny) also.
On the idea of skids, I wonder would that add undue strain as regards the hills. The photo is deceptive.
I bought a terrano 3.0 early this year and was gonna be a money pit so sold it not long afterTerrano...

Hi, This is Mark J. Lemmon. I'm Experts to help you in the choice of your tractor Brands and all Things About tractor.
This is essentially what four-wheel drive does. It gives you traction where and when you need it. Although 4WD is a bit more complicated than that, it’s essentially a way to increase traction and power on the road.
