not needing to go very fast then? top whack you`ll get is about 20mph- I tow the chipper / quad and trailer regularly in the highlands the low box won`t help you unless its for very limited situations. I used mine today to just get from swamp to track - then up to 4h, then asap to 2h - Hope this helps

mine goes faster than 20 in low boxs its a 2001. i use it for work and often have half ton plus on the back and a 2 ton digger plus trailer weight behide. it will set of fine on flat roads but if i have to stop on a hill which most roads are round here (halifax) it doesnt like setting off. if i had low box for setting of on hills it would save the clutch loads. once back on the flat i would stick it back in 2 high.

thanks
