Just finished watching this build again from start to finish over the last few weeks, turned out unreal, you need to build another, that angle on the bed is perfect, no big hump, just nice and smooth, get another done and ill be a buyer lol
That turned out unreal, looks really smart! if possible do a video of loading a few cars when youre out and about to see the loading angle etc.. id be interested to know what you think of the rope on the winch after a few months, im looking to go rope but ive heard mixed reports
I would not have bought a rope a few years ago because you could not get oil on it or the UV light would affect it but not with this rope and you have to change the fairlead out of the winch and use the right size snatch block but will let you know if there is any hassle with it
Unreal job just came across this project last week, gave me afew ideas for my own, I taught it would be heavier, is there anything you would change if doing it again
Ya that was built for end of life cars and recovery not transportation so I would just make out of aluminium but worked well the angles were good but I would like to loose the heavy steel to see how light I could get a steel body
Them floors are heavy I can't move them with out forklift Have you seen reel smart winch system I'm building one on my truck but I was ment to put it in transit and fit it below the floor it would have been good
@@harnesslife I'm on two minds to leave my body way it is, saves chopping it and make a new one but steels is robbery, what way did you fit the sheets rivet or did you weld them in
@@harnesslife yea I'm in monaghan myself. So be same for me. I'll be starting to build my own transit very soon. How did you keep the weight down so much. 2200kg is very good.
@@harnesslife yea id be looking at some aluminium sheeting for the floor. So that would keep the weight down another bit. Do you build them for other people or just yourself?
I built it into the bed I'm building a better slider that was ment to be on that truck the winch would be under the floor and just a pully block on the floor of the bed freeing up space it will be on a video on the DAF build
