those things can go in water can't they?

like the banana bunch(remember those :whistling: )

a splendid bit of kit for getting around in,lamping and as you say fetching heavy stuff(or even light stuff,why carry it when you can drive it??) from the moors.

with that much traction/weight dispertion you will hardly leave a trail on farm land or moor.

asolutly splendid bit of kit and i'm so jealous that i don't have one :tongue2::tongue2:

Hi what do you think of my new offroader guys. think il get stuck? Got it for a price i couldnt refuse! long way to pick it up though

I worked on a vehicle similar to this years ago made by scot track, the chain drives can be your biggest nightmare. There will probably be a chain going from both hydraulic travel motors to the first wheel on each side, then there is a chain from the 1st wheel to the 2nd, another one from the 2nd to the 3rd and so on. And you can guarantee if 1 is going to break, you'll be in the middle of nowhere stuck in a two foot bog. Lol.

You can also get tracks for them that go over and are driven by the wheels.

All the best with it mate, I hope you get no problems with it.
