farmermarshall Posted December 20, 2009 Author Share Posted December 20, 2009 that's a proper quarry cab guard.. Nowt wrong with it Stephen.. you'd definately need it if I was loading you up :D see that Sean boy Marky is he just trying to wind us up here do you think he really knows what he's talking about :laugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 no idea??? i know we do have them, just smaller than those ones, usally about the size of the top part of the body you have, seen big ones like that on euro lorrys particualy spanish ones, just never over here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 hmmmm let me see well stephen i like it but if i can add some constructive critisizm it has one thing missing , for a body of that design & size you will need a 2nd steer axle , it should be an 8 legger ! for a 6 wheeler the chassis needs to be a bit shorter really , & the cab protection headboard on the body are usually only fitted for direct from quarry face or demolition outfits . would be unusual to see aggrigate tippers or muckaway using this type of body . now then mr marshall i have been watching your hgv/lgv conversions with a great deal of interest & am dis-heartened to see a lack of feed delivery bulk blowers amongst the marshall fleet & with the fitment of a 2nd axle to one of those MAN's i reckon it would look great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 ah i used to work on a farm that had a 3c, quality machine , thats if you cold keep controll of the beast , seem to remember the swivel seat wouldnt lock in place & was pushed right back for someone with very long legs & the pedals used to go from side to side as much as up & down , bit slack i think i think that was the first time i encountered a 1 lever working 2 spools control for the loader , whoa that took a while to master ;D ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
