Probs dont need air brakes, if it has electric brake controller installed, and appropriate brakes on the trailer?
-
Be weird if Ford put a general motors engine into their trucks no?
-
Helical hitch is the bomb if you want to stick to old school climbing style.
-
Bet its a dirty carb. We have 3, all periodically have the same issue.
-
It'd be no good in the UK, but its a strong truck. 6lt turbo diesel. I regularly tow 5t plus.
-
Hope confidently felled that with your truck parked there? Thatd be a good stunt fell! We did 6 of them today, 8 yesterday. All around 40inch dbh.

Close call Mick! Few big Cottonwoods the last 2 days.
-
2 days worth of work. Stump measured 108 inches at its widest. The last pic came in at 5000lbs.

Portable winch, Captain Hook, SRT!

Best to just PM me here.

Open to anyone that can get a visa to work in Canada. The work is good, mostly conifer removals. Need to be comfortable working in all weather conditions. Good rates of pay, good equipment, good lads.
-
Bump. Ideally looking for an experienced climber now, but open to anything.
-
Thanks guys, problem solved.
-
Anyone able to give me the stihl part number for item 6 in this photo please? Small cover on the front of a 201tcm. Thanls Paddy

Agreed, we are similar in that most wood stays onsite, some of the customers are very perticular about their log sizes, can be a pain at times.
-
Nicely done again. Liked the prussics on the rigging line. 18s because the customer insisted?
-
Capacity is a valid point, but if you fit a days work in to your truck usually, then upgrading to the bigger machine it'll still fit if you dont start chipping bigger wood. But you will spend alot less time chipping. Go home earlier, or fit more work into the day.
-
I found fellhunters great on spurs, I like the hightop, wish other boots were taller. Not great for pruning or ground though, too cumbersome. In Zermatts now, very good on spurs, decent all rounder I think. Both have a good heel, vital for spurs I think.
-
To add to Regs comments, you wont struggle to find a job if you have a Work Visa in place, especially in Vancouver. Turning that into Residency can be a challenge, but very feasible.

Im not sure if the crank is f'd? How much play is too much? Bearings seem ok. The rest of the saw is in great condition. Thoughts on Hutzl or similar pot and piston?
-
Stihl 361, cracked piston. Looks rank inside. Cylinder shot? Crank? Opinions please.
-
Not exactly comparable saws really. 365 is a size smaller Cc wise and old technology, compared with the brand new 462. 365 is still a very capable saw.
-
Good to know, I had doubts as its pretty soft? Not my favourite either, hockles badly for me.
-
How does it go on Voyager?
-
Nice Reg.
