Deerepower Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 I had a spare dumper body in 1 of my boxes of bits so I thought I would try this out as it has been hinted by a ftf member in my 5000/chafer topic still got some work to do to it and dont know to finish it in blue or yellow \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deerepower Posted July 16, 2007 Author Share Posted July 16, 2007 the ram system has come off a siku lemken gigant 1000 so it's got a heavy duty ram for tipping gravel and dirt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IH885XLMAN Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 I remember reading one of the tractor mags with them showing a ford 5000 being converted with a shawnee dumper just like that DP but they changed the cab and it was painted yellow I cant remember if COUNTY had somthing to do with the conversions or shawnee themselves :'( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akey Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 That looks pretty good.........i've seen a few of these Ford 5000 front axleless convo's.......you'ld think Britains would bring out a axleless 5000 for a discount price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
