Hi peeps
 
I have an LT35 horsebox which has a 2.0l petrol engine. It is fine for carrying my one horse that i have but at the end of this year i want to get another horse, unfortunatley, although stalled for 2 horses, i dont think this girl has enough 'guts' to carry 2!! I was wondering if i could change the lump in her to a 2.5 diesel or similar?? I have no idea if this is an option or not and was wondering if any of you guys know if i could do this?? She is on an old 'X' reg. I dont really want to sell her as i love her to bits and she is in good nick for her age.

That looks good. Did you do the conversion yourself or buy it as such?
Never come across the LT box before - had a look at some other conversions but ended up with the IW 505!!

Harness the horses up to her, 2 more horsepower! LOL . Sorry I didn't mean it, but it's Friday, I've just been paid, and I've just had a call to say my T3 is ready to collect from a respray so I'm having a mad half hour!
