Yeah I know. I got my LLC paper work this morning and my wallet is decidedly lighter than it was.
 
Paperwork certainly costs money .........but it better to go that way will more than likely pay off down the line
 
hey cat, what trans in your 8? funk? ya ever look at that timber ya was talkin bout a while back

Its an IH trans. I think its an oil cooler line leaking I cant quite tell from the top side. I know when it starts getting low on oil the torque starts to get hot .

Torque converter driven powershift. I want one of those 550 deeres with the direct driven power shift. NO slippage there. I'll have me a wide track before to long .. Either a 550 deere or an 850 case. Something with snot to it.. I like my little TD8.. its a good machine I just want more power.

You wanna buy a TD8? you can even have the gearmatic with the 100' of 5/8'' swage cable and 3 chokers lol

I bet you a deere dd same size as your 8 will not pull with it

Nope it wont.. that TD8 will pull the guts right out of a 450 deere. I've put my 8 up to the rear bumper of a tri axle with 4100' of hardwood on and pushed it out of a foot of sticky nasty clay. It worked but it did it.

I can believe that. I was disappointed when I got the 540, it ain't near as big as it looks
 
I dont mind the deere skidders. I've been around more jacks though than deeres. The old jacks are a good machine and I like the 450's and 360's.. Those 360 Jacks are one fast strong skidder.
