Well after two years it’s finished except for sign writing after getting rid of lenny the landrover as it just wasn’t big enough for the job we bought a unimog and have restored from back to front made custom front bumper with big winch in case we get stuck and put two big stiff legs on rear and one on each side front for stability we have fitted a 20 ton Syren winch and two 12 ton winches one each side we also took a telehandler boom and shortened it to our spec and got Adam at Rydam to make us a spade, the reason we used a telehandler boom was when a big pull is needed we can tele out and dig in to stop front end rearing up. Also fitted a full tele radio remote and two variable speed valve blocks, we are all done now but the sign writing as we always name our trucks like Sid the snail ,Donald the DAF and Lenny the landrover but we can’t get something to go with unimog so we are looking for recommendations for a name in the comments please
Many thanks Hoddys recovery@
