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

body is 2,200kg with over half a tank of diesel in it not bad in the end
@@harnesslife Not bad for sure, mine weighs around 2350 i think with half a tank.. would you sell ?
@@Darren-DJL-1 ya I would but I would not get the price I need for it so I will have to use it for a few years to make up the money
@@harnesslife what sort of money would you be looking?

I've a mk6 mild steel chequer plate floor and mild steel side skirts but it's nearly 2500 I'd say needs loose few kgs.

@@mikeyb784 rivets it will come down in price soon I hope
Turned out really well. What is the legal requirement for the over hang of the beavertail to pass the engineers. For same lwb transit. Thanks
60% of wheel base from center of back wheel I'm in Ireland don't know if that makes a difference
@@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.
50mm box frame is only 3mm wall but when welded unreal strong and I would loose the the heavey flat that would save another 150kgs
I just bought a sheet of 3mm steel 4ft by8 and it's still going up in price rapidly another last year it cost 103 euro November price was 150 now 170

Amazing work! Who made the bed?
I built the bed
Hi bud where did you get that winch slider from
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
Hi would you sell the the truck ?
The truck was sold
Hi sir you have a contact details please ?
