treebloke Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Thought I would get my own back on the trees so I have shortend the back and given it the 'A Team' appearance. I was going to tray back it but I am sure I read some where that they are so out of fashion this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landrover598 Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Looks good, should help keep the trees off. What does it attach to at the front ? I am sure I read some where that they are so out of fashion this year. Hmm What is this years fashion then ? As i can change the design of my current build before it's finished Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treebloke Posted February 4, 2008 Author Share Posted February 4, 2008 Found some mud and trees at Buildwas to try the rear winch set up. Works quite well but a few teething problems. Need to alter the snatch block attachments but I knew that would be suspect. One good thing about having the rear winch a bit higher than normal means it takes less power to bring the vehicle upright when on a steep slope. Side winching is fine, not sure about going forwards yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
