yes im workin it out,:)
im going to fit a 110 roof rack with a roller on the back,for rails and long posts,ladders etc.
also have a shelf under the roof rack above the rear tub for posts that i can drop in and out,
the rear tub will have a safe in there for my tools and nails screws etc.

its gunna be a 1 trick pony set up for field work but that is all it is for so i might make some pull out drawers for screws and plumbing fittings.

I think it will work but i may have to fit some monroe rear shocks for the weight.

I find a trailer a pain on most fencing other than new instalations where a full supply load is required.I just dont need a trailer much.and I got rid of the 130 tipper cos it was too big in the gateways so maybee my plan will work and i will still have the agility of the 90.

the kin navara wouldnt pull the sheep trailer up a wet field the otherday and i had to carry a load of lamb to the paddock across 12 acres so i need the 90 really..

the 130 i had was awesome,moved a **** load of wood with that ...it just dont suit field work.in the woods yes .

130 crew cab hi cap is a beast tho...
a 110 tip is ok but if you fit a big butt you way as well go 130.

110 hicap is the way really for allround pick up.I just cant find a decent 1 under 10k so im gunna keep the 90 and get on with that,at least i wont get stuck like the bosses kin navara piece o ****.them fukin ****boxes get stuck on all my jobs.......:mad::mad::D
 
found this as pretty much wot i need to build,shelf in the rear area and the top a bit longer over the bonnet.

na .....that alloy 1 is well over 500 quids :rolleyes::rolleyes:

i wouldnt load a truck cab roof like that either.it will go to the chassis ....
The rear frame will need to be strong and will effectively with the rest of the rack become a roll over cage if i build it right....:cool:
 
looking at the rear tub as i have a sw its got a baulk head,to save changeing the seat box can i just cut the tub off leaving the cab in place after fitting the truck cab roof.
the mounts look in the right place......
