Is there not a chance of someone nicking something out of the back of your van or "tampering" with your stuff if you leave the van doors open?

I would like to see SOMEBODY walk off with ours - it took 3 to get it in lol

We've never had anything taken out the back of the van (touchwood) in the whole time we've been running truckmounts, Had a sat-nav nicked from the front but that was us been stupid and not locking the front cabin although we were only work 15ft away from the van

What truckmount do you have Gary as there are a couple of ways of reducing the noise levels

It's an 18hp Panther, I wanted yours but offer was turned down  .

dont mean nicking the actual truckmount itself, but other bits and bobs like tools, chems etc and also, kids/chavs turnings numptys, pulling out soltion hose etc.

I think maybe 1 in 200 jobs I do I'm worried about scum bags messing with my stuff.  I don't do much in town centres and "affordable" housing areas, partly due to the market I aim for and partly because my area is as much rural as it is urban.  Plenty of sleepy little villages in which to destroy the peace & quiet

Ummm sorry about that , Do you have your rubber exhaust running infront of the machine still? We bought some longer length exhaust pipe and re-routed it to come out the oposite side of the van (furthest away from the house), This worked very well, Also if your van is ply-lined get some insulation behind it and also carpet the wall and floor, Makes a huge difference as it reduces the "boooming" of the machine

I also have a couple of tips to get abit more heat out of it if your interested, Send me a PM if you fancy
