Powerstarâ„¢ Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Just wondering can the cattle shell be taken from the base, as i want a nother flat bed for bale haulage, but wouldn't mind a cattle transporter at the same time, that way i can kill two birds with one John Deere, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 As far as I know, the lvestock trailer is the same bed and box as the old lorry Britains did and withe a pull backwards by a couple of mil it should just lift clear.

Powerstarâ„¢ Posted October 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 That's what i'm thinking, but i thought i heard it wasn't liftable? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THEBRITFARMER Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 It must be removable as Dave has had the boxes for sale on ebay in the past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstarâ„¢ Posted October 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Probably off of the Magiruz-Deutz or Iveco lorries. I thought i heard the new casting wouldn't let you take it off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FB Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 but the shell i got off ebay from DT, doesnt fit the older lorries, well i had a trouble as the lugs are slightly bigger \ :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 to big as in width or length fb,they could probally be filed down lightly in both cases i would think to get the fit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJB1 Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 i thuoght the lorry bed & flat trailer would've been the same cast ,the same goes for the cattle box shell, i would of thought unlikely that they would bother to modify or change any castings or moulds \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 probally down to a thicker coat of paint on the bed or thicker plastic when the box was made,but just minor production differences i would have thought,the box of the lorry i have went straght on the flatbed of mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerstarâ„¢ Posted October 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 thanks for the help lads, so my lorry one should fit my flatbed, will try later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
