Thanks, i only intend to fit 24v stuff to save on problems, the heated rear window would be well handy so i will look into a 24v system for it, they must be out there for trucks and lorrys that are 24v ?

thankyou, i will phone the seller and ask him what he used for his trailer. Good call removing the ball, haddent thought of that.

Two pic's the first one is of the drivers side were the last owner had his signs, you can see it's a bit of a mess and you can see the origonal camo a bit, the passenger side is the same. Drop ball hitch the 4 x bolts are the right pitch for the nato hitch, yeah it is a swivel one and very solid so will need freeing up, at the momment i don't have a trailer so no rush to sort this out.

PS...the back has a drop ball hitch there is room for the nato hitch but can you have both?

Wow awsome info, we...me and the mrs have chatted and can't justify keeping the roof rack it is i belive a brownchurch and £150 to £200 would pay for more bits, so i am going to sell it, i can't put it on here yet so it will have to be ebay i guess. Needs...steeing damper, tyres, rear shocks, 820C thermostat, rad flush stuff. Needs done so far...new track rod ends, steering box adjusted, new points n plugs, done the timeing, got a starting handel of ebay to do it. Paint... i got this 109 of a retired gardiner, he bought her in 1999 from a milatry dealer, she is an 1984 109 so all she has done in his care is go from job to job in his home town but he had his signs on the sides and were they were it looks rough what with all the hols and silicon left behind, this is the main reason why i would like to paint her, i have filled the holes...rivets and penny washers, she is an ex royal engineers radio 109 FFR so yeah it's 24v so i might not be able to do the intermitent wiper do da for a bit, i have no imediate plans to convert her to 12v. I bought her for many reasons first she was advertised for £900 and i knocked him down to £700 yeah i stole it...lol she has 12 monthe mot, the brownchurch roof rack, no one has done any weared wireing mods and she has a westair penthouse lamp fitted all working, nice all i can find wrong is mostly cosmetic and neglect. I will take some more pic's tomorrow so you can see stuff.

Thank's for the advice, yeah the tyres are a must do but i didn't know how much the roof rack affected fuel consumption and handling...many thanks. i have also removed the battering ram from the front bumper
