Which parts? I think everything aprt from the slewing gear is repairable.

 

Osbornes at Ower were importers.

 

The King post and Slewing pots are now good for scrap, King post has lost some of the teeth and damaged others, and the casting where the slewing pots screw in has cracked off and left the ring with bolts on the stump plate!

 

I've tried Osbornes, They cant get the bits anymore, so I'm now looking to replace it with an FMV 280 or 350, a botex or anything else I can lay my hands on to lift larger timber!! We are flat out at the moment! Worst timing possible!!

Thanks Stephen -Great minds, I have tried Wilsons, but they've only got brand spankers (new) at the moment and as it's an expense we hadn't forseen I've been trying to source something with a little less impact on my wallet. Got my fingers crossed for a miracle!

 

There is a Ford and a Valmet on the wilsons website under used forest tractors that both look to have FMV cranes on. One for 11k the other 23k
