decroyffe Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 Chuffed to bits with this little number, had the horse box on with a good 2 ton, and pulled like a train. Went out lamping last night and had no problems there either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al4x Posted May 18, 2007 Report Share Posted May 18, 2007 this is mine, great tools for shooting, not the easiest to shoot out of with a rifle while lamping though, I've a frame sits on the sunroof and you stand on the passenger seat. With a shottie the same position is awesome lovely and high and the roof holds you in well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

decroyffe Posted May 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 20, 2007 You didn't need the helper springs for the horse box then Decroyffe ? LB hiya LB, didn't need the heavy duty springs for the box, looked at the technical spec in the manual, and it states 3500kg breaked towing capacity :blink: Quite a bit of gerth in the low end of the box so i'll see how it go's. :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still the frame on the roof works pretty well. On the other note you shouldn't need helper springs with the horsebox, mine tows an Ifor fine though I have upgraded the rear springs. Milner off road are great for most fourtrack spares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
