Has any one got any pics of a crane or winches they use to lift there spare wheel on and off the back of the there truck. My wheels are 1500-20s and a bit heavy to lift on to the back of the Albion I have. Any idears, pics please. Thanks
I think it would be a good idear to go ahead and move it before some one decides that it would be a good way of making a few quid as the price of scrap is up. Some one may come along and clam it who's not the real owner and before you know it it's cut up and gone. Good luck

Hi just been in to my local WH Smith's they have a magazine on circus transport with some great pictures of ex MOD trucks used for circus transport. Well worth a look.
Thanks for all the info on Batteries a local farm supply store found me just the right ones. The old girls up and running again.
