Deerepower Posted July 16, 2007 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
Deerepower Posted July 16, 2007 Author 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
IH885XLMAN Posted July 16, 2007 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
Akey Posted July 16, 2007 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

I sell the axels and wheels the 5000/chafer conversion I have 3 done and some more to do Quote
Kris Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 Looks very good i would say piant it yellow and what do you plan to do with the rest of the Lemken Quote
Deerepower Posted July 16, 2007 Author Posted July 16, 2007 Looks very good i would say piant it yellow and what do you plan to do with the rest of the Lemken only got 1 of the cultivator units left, have used the rest of it Quote
nashmach Posted July 16, 2007 Posted July 16, 2007 I'd paint it yellow too - all those conversions were although they didn't have that cab Quote
Deerepower Posted July 16, 2007 Author Posted July 16, 2007 I'd paint it yellow too - all those conversions were although they didn't have that cab think I'll leave the cab on health and safety and all that Quote

BGU Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 Looks really good to me. I agree think it would be best in yellow. Quote
Deerepower Posted July 17, 2007 Author Posted July 17, 2007 well you wanted it in yellow so here you go Quote
BGU Posted July 17, 2007 Posted July 17, 2007 Yuk no I've changed my mind it was better blue! Only joking. Looks great. Quote
Deerepower Posted July 17, 2007 Author Posted July 17, 2007 cheers BGU ; might do a 5000 in yellow and fit a hedgecutter on it \ (me leave the front axel on a 5000 that will be a first ) Quote
