Thank you, it’s all sounding positive for the swb, I’m testing tomorrow so I feel a bit more confident now. I hadn’t really thought about the Shogun but it’s another to consider if the land cruiser is no good

I need a 4wd turnbuckle plus space for two large dogs so a hatchback wouldn’t work for me. I’m not sure a 3.5t would take both my horses legally nor am I sure it would get out of my yard. I’d love a lorry but having given it a lot of thought I don’t think it would work.

That’s exactly my problem too Tiddlypom, glad to hear the swb tows well though. Thank you

The Disco is too long Levrier, I really need a swb to enable me to get out of my yard. Thanks Wheels, you’re convincing me!!

Thank you Ester, it’s good to hear positive experiences. I think I’ve just got to get my head around the fact they can do the job! Splashgirl45 the Defender would be my next choice if I don’t get on with the land cruiser, it’s just a matter of finding one. I know they’re definitely up to the job!

Excellent Wheels, thank you for replying especially as the reason I need to change to the swb is because Im struggling to get out of my yard. I’ve already swapped from an Equi Trek to an IW trailer because it’s shorter but I could do with going shorter still so am thinking the swb will be the...

Apologies if this has been done before but I’m looking for some simple easy to understand info as I’m confused by conflicting info online. I am thinking of trading in my lwb ‘06 Land Cruiser for the new 2018 commercial Land Cruiser. It’s towing capacity is quoted as the same as the lwb but...

Hi, I know this has been done lots on here and I've looked up some of the old threads before posting but I still have some questions! I have a large area of mud caused by my horses having to cross the top of their summer grazing to get into the yard as there is no alternative way in. It's...

It’s been whackered down MagicMelon but I think if they twist on it they’ll scuff it up. I do agree about the grass mats & I’m also worried about farriers nails etc. Thank you for your reply, such a dilemma!

Ok thank you very much, I’ve got the thin ones in my Shetland’s stable and wasn’t sure they’d be man enough for the job but from what you’ve said it might be worth a try.

Have you secured the stable mats in any way? I’ve thought about using them but I’m worried they’ll trip over the edges. If I used stable mats I’d have to use the thin ones to keep cost down and I think they’ll be so light they’ll move around.

Yes you’re probably right TheMule, I’m guessing I’d have to keep it pretty clean but I’m not sure how it would stand up to regular sweeping. I don’t mind the holes filling up but I wouldn’t want a layer forming on top. Mind you if it won’t cope with vigorous sweeping it won’t cope with horse...

Has anyone used the holey type grass mats over hardcore in a yard area to prevent the hardcore being churned up and if so was it a success? I’m looking to protect a small hardcore area roughly 24 x 12 foot which will be used regularly by horses to come in and out of field shelters. Also as an...

It's on I player - the whole 5 hours!

Thank you JanetGeorge here's hoping for an easy recovery and a more settled girl.
