I,m on the look out for a big old hydraulic winch to mount on the front bumper of my Foden 6x6, bigger the better:thumbup: was so wet on friday had to select 6 wheel drive and difflocks to get up the hill out of the forest! think fitting a winch maybe a good idea.

You don't bother with the legs then??:001_huh:

 

No don,t use the legs when using the timber grab, truck weighs 16 ton and has no falling over issuses. Also i,ve got the grab and rotator piped through the leg control valves, for lifting heavy stuff i take the grab off and reconnect the legs to the controls, one day i,l fit the extra controls for the legs, maybe when i fit the big old winch:thumbup:

keep a look as occasionally they put the items on the auction part of the site! also it may be worth giving them a ring and offering them a price as a lot of the kit sits on there for a good while

that,s just the job but not the price!

 

i think the price may not be what u fancy, but i'm not sure i'd fancy dragging that cable up a wet slippery hill that not even that truck will climb up, u'd have a sweat on time u got up to the top!:lol:

 

Nice truck by the way!!!!:thumbup1:

You would need another winch to haul the cable up for you! :biggrin:
