    Yea you have a good point we run 4 bale carriers which have been set up to carry 72 bales can clear a field pretty quickly also we put them in barns with a 64 bale grab on the front of a jcb (we don't even touch it by hand) yea think I will have to save up and get a nice little 6400 got to keep it john deere really as we run a 6610 6600 2x 3040 2x 2140 3640 and 2 3130 but they are here cutting machines lol was just a thought with the land rover and bale carrier but I can see it being more effort than its worth!

    It tips then opens you back over the hay stack then nip it up and tip it back and then the reverse to empty it

    Basically the other day I left my 64 bale carrier at a farm I was working at (about 10 miles away)rather that run a tractor to get it I went in My 110 and bought it back on the journey home I thorght wonder if I could use it on here as it was faster and smoother than my john deere 2140 lol

    Hi,I have been thinking for a while about putting hydraulics on my land rover so I could use it on the farm for moving hay bales (64 bale carrier) I just wondered if the land rover hydraulic pump that goes on the transfer box would work this? Any help would be grateful Many thanks,ben

    i ran boost alloys on my 1986 110 for about a year and a half with no problems ive got a sailsbury rear axle all i done is took the center caps out .

    sounds like a good idea ! i have a 110 and run 33" insa turbos on a 2" lift with castor correction arms,ajustable panhard rod and a return to center steering damper and it dont handle very well but its 10x better than my mates disco with 2" lift and 265 75 16 tyres its like a boat !! lol would really like to see what this comes out like good luck with it .

    hi there i was thinking of upgrading to a newer 110 but not really sure what mine is worth as its had a few modifications ? heres a list of things i can remember 2" lift kit britpart heavy duty springs all round with pro comp shocks goodrich brake lines polybushed qt castor correction arms rocksliders 300tdi engine conversion larger intercooler slightly tuned injector pump and turbo electric fan a bar with wipac lights roof bar 285/75/16 insa turbo tyres on 8j steel wheels (only 5 months old) side exit exhaust (straight through) cubby box dog guard recently had the outriggers welded and new 2nd row crossmember front and rear diff guards ajustable panhard rod return to center steering shock probably had more but cant remember at the moment and the year is 1986 any help would be great even if i dont upgrade it would be handy to know for insurance many thanks,ben
