those short chunky pieces work better with two chokers opposed. less shock load on the crane than with a single when it kicks over.

366 truck motor should take 8qts. with filter

And throw and extra quart in for when your push rod blows a hole in your rocker ! Hate that truck but when it runs I love it !

yup I've converted and I gotta say those 390s are legit as hell ! Sound throaty and when they are hard digging and buried they run like a beast

We will use that method next time. Makes sense.

A little trickier to lay down when choked like that but you can use the curb or a chunk of wood to get them started. A good op won't have a problem.

That pick was smooth, I have a video of it but I can only load pics through tap talk.

its kind of a two-edged sword. with a smaller crane your limited to the length of large diameter pieces you can pick an stay in the load chart. but the larger picks are easier to rig and stabilize. you have to finesse them all.

Mmm... I dunno, kinda looks a little twig like for all that jazz, to be honest. Also, what's with the brush all up and in the work zone? Seems kinda dangerous and sloppy to me.

We put a climber in that tree and it was nonsense. Norway pine, the branches were like barbed swords and it was dense as a mothertrucker. We all are bleeding. We took the top off, backed in a bucket and skinned it up. That cut at the bottom was the only cut made on the ground. We were pretty damn safe all day.

They suck, but if you have a good hand saw and ability, you won't need a chainsaw for a good bit of it.

Aren't you bringing a crane to make sure nothing hits the ground around the tree .... Or am the retard here ?

Yes, you are. But don't feel lonely, I'm right there with you.

It's like buying a 20" chipper and brush loading everything
