Must be in NI

I find BSP is much tidier to use if you are adapting or fabricating with t's, crosses, banjos, long and short elbows, with all sorts of male and female versions and all around half the price here compared to metric.

What are parts prices for claas like ?

Had 1 swivel before and hated it. It rarely sat level on the hook but would lean one way or the other and and swap at random and on turns.

Ah, go on

Interesting Gerbert. Dont think an axle load over 10 tonnes is allowed on a regular truck here but it would be more than enough for field work.

Did not know any design connection but I think the Pinzgauer and Tatra but the axle setup seems very similar

Does anyone weld old worn points on top of part worn ones anymore?

Looking at Tatras on youtube. The seem like the king of off road trucks.

I have herd washup liquid in the water helps get rid of the gas after I stuck the water hose in a cylinder letting the water run, left it full over night, tipped it and filled again and it still gave a little flash when i put the welder to it. Be careful.

Unless something siezes and roasts the belt , 17 more years is along way off

Bring hinge points up and forward. The forward increases clearance more from both the load and the ground

Seen one at this for years and never got worse or better.

Is it causing a big problem ? It should work away. I would think it is priority valve for steering but not sure.

Like the metabos. They had and maybe still do have 3 year warranty. Not dissing makita but i never got 3 years out of them or any other grinder before. Recreantly got a 4 1/2 inch millwalkie. Nice balance, soft start ,very convienent but well under powered. I wont be dumping the extension leeds...
