Anyone had a Volvo ecr25D on an ifor williams 1054BT trailer ?

Looks like a long build up from the pick up point to the bucket pins . I haven’t driven any machine with that much build up so I can’t say for sure but it looks like the standard geometry has been completely forgotten but maybe that’s not as much of an issue with a tiltrotator .
The Volvos do look a really decent lump for the weight . The 25 and 27 look massive compared to my 18

Long dipper , twin hitch and counter weight by the looks of it .
Lovely machine but must be heavy and combined towing weight must be approaching 3.8 ton ish ? On that trailer

hell of a lot of 'daylight' in the middle of that hitch ..that stack must be getting on for 700mm tall

As we have a couple of threads on the go I thought I would post this here .
Plenty to talk about here !

Is no one going to comment on the restraint placement on this tie down job

I think the daylight is actually a plate or sticker but yeah it's like a tower block. Not sure I'd be a fan of it myself and would be itching to take it all off and just put the bloody bucket back on! Base machine looks nice though
