I have an SC252 that I am in the process of upgrading. I had the hydraulics redone and changed the hydraulic pump pulley to a 3.5". Huge improvement. I just ordered the 35hp Briggs Vanguard to put on it. I would like some feedback on grinder wheels. I am running the stock wheel with yellow jackets. I only run 4 teeth on the wheel, 2 each on opposite sides of the wheel. It cuts a hell of a lot faster when the teeth are sharp, but creates a ton of vibration when they dull out. I have noticed wheels that have some teeth mounted more towards the center of the wheel so that you can take a bigger cut. I like the yellow jackets because they don't break when I hit rocks, like other brands have, but would like to get through the stumps faster and be able to pack more chips under the machine. What does everyone like for a wheel / teeth setup on a 35 horse grinder?
