extracting 150 cube plus hardwoods
Svts replied to steve collins's topic in Forestry and Woodland management
Thanks for replies Openspaceman and ESS. No ballasting in front tyres but a fair old rack of weights hanging off the front. I would rather avoid the water ballasting as I have a roofmount with it and i find it's a bit bouncy on the road. -

Aa didn't give a thought to splitting tractor ! Would have to discuss that with someone and may be look at some bracing. That may make it too expensive for the odd job. Id3a was to make an inexpensive solution that wouldn't break the bank if sat in the yard for months on end. Also hoped it would save my lower back getting sore from the pole catching and punching the butt plate repeatedly. And getting a jarring bump from the s3at back on l9ng skids. Thanks for that as might of saved me a big whoopsie. Further thought required. -

Interesting thread. I have recently been toying with the idea of building an American style trailed arch to put behind the winch tractor for these sort of jobs. As the main issue i find is not picking up the butt plate but keeping the tractors front end on the ground. My hope was that suspending the butt this way would take the strain of the rear axle. And allow for four driving wheels planted on the floor ? Does this sound feasible to you chaps ? -

Bump. Still looking ! Unfortunately there is no stayaway allowance so would need to be in sensible driving distance.
