Can my T260 MK6 Carry these (wieght issue)

Postby SLIPPY » Sun Jan 18, 2009 10:37 am

Bought these , just wondering if they will be to heavy or big to carry in my SWB T260 transit or will I need a bigger motor to get them home ?

The first two are :
EACH LION = 200kgs EACH
* 880mm high
* 420mm wide
* 540mm deep
* Plinth size 420mm wide x 530mm deep

The second pair are : 46kg each
EACH is 2ft 6ins long, 1 foot high and almost a foot wide at widest points

any ideas ?

Hi Craig
There is one advantage with these lions,- They won't take much feeding!

All best regards to you Both.
