My Little Loggin outfit

[tramp bushler]

Nice work Tramp Bushler, I hope your business thrives. I put an Arrowcraft dual rear wheel kit on an F250 of about the same or earlier vintage and it worked great. I don't know what the price is now, but the greatest benefit was stability of the truck under load hauling a 16,000lb trailer full of horses and hounds.

Any idea where I can find ArrowCraft rear dual wheel kits , and how much do they cost ???.


bullbuck , It does have a 360 in the Dodge ... I got the ford this fall , it,s 4 wheel drive and our haul road is a mile of seismic line , frozen winter road the ford is a 1 ton with a 7.3 diesel .and a crummy . I have to keep saws , clothes and bar oil in the cab . Easiest way to toast the oiler on your saw . try making it pump solid bar oil .. ie oil @ -35 d f .

. Tarzan; I watched the vids this morning . Now all I need is to find out who sells BORFORS FORCAT 2000 ..... To say that is the #1 perfect machine for me is the understatement of the year .... I can mobe it in my pickup .... It will go thru the leave trees same as my 4 wheeler , it is only 1 foot wider than mu sno go ......I could log up to 8 cord of the wood I,m loggin per day .........That is more than the market will bear .... so 2 cord a day would be a piece of cake for it .. ... I put out 1 1/4 th cord today from 2 pm - 4:30 pm .. Got a late start .. I already had 3/4 ths of it on the ground .. 4 1/2 sled loads ... The skidder would sure save my back !!!!!

Arrowcraft phone number

The number for Arrowcraft in Michigan is 248-280-0210. Sorry, I couldn't find an 800 number. Their website is http://www.arrowcraft.com. You can't order online-too many variations of kits so they want to speak with you first. I also put a larger exhaust pipe on that truck and it added about 1/2 gear to my power.

I got ahold of Arrowcraft on the e mail . They can,t ship via US Priority mail . so it will have to be Fed Ex. The only thing I,m wondering is do I need drop center wheels .????? I saw a kit where they wern,t needed . Just used regular wheels ... Thank you for the phone #...
.
. The woods trailer has had a few mods since the pic . Now it is a single axle with much bigger tires and wheels , but it needs to be tandem axle .. the single tire will drop into a hole and over goes the load :censored:.. . It is nice how easy it goes thru the woods tho . I can fall ,limb and buck a 1/4 th cord tree back a bit in a hole in the trees . unhook the trailer and push it back in to the tree by hand then back the 4 wheeler in to it , hook it up , load it ,binder it and off I go ... Seriously low impact .... That Iron Horse definitely has potential for some of the places I sneak into to get dead trees ...... The problem comes in with How much for this , how much for that ??? With God's blessing and alot of Hard work the business is moving ahead . Tho with Christmas the phone has stopped ringing with wood orders . Will have to budget that in next winter .... Live and learn ..........

. Here,s last winters .

I need to get the pics off my LG phone for this winters truck and show .

Love those Huskies! Had one that lived to be 16 years old. Never barked, his stare was very intimidating and he loved to pull me like I was his own personal sled when we went for a walk.. well I was running! He was a housedog but would go outside and lay in the snow when it snowed and liked to sleep on the couch when we were not looking with his legs in the air. Favorite food was a raw potato or carrot or orange. Best dog I ever had.

He,s a village dog . .. His mother was a feral dog that hung out around Kake , his dad was half german shepard and half I don,t know what , but my dog has shepard , golden reteiver kupreanof is wolf , and I don,t know what else ...... Best dog I have ever met . saved my wife and I from being mauled by brown bear 4 times that we know of ........ He's paid his bill for life !!! He is pretty vile sometimes , but that just keeps him active ........Have to keep a short leash on him when the neighbor up the highway puts her trash out ........ He sleeps on the couch when he wants to ......
