    Best way to move big wood?

    I have been renting a hell of a large Volvo articulated loader (10klbs) for about $500 a day. I don't need or want it everyday. But go do three or four removals and clean up everything but the logs, then load up the rental on the trailer on the back of the log truck and away we go. If I can sell...

    1996 GMC Log truck Hood Loader

    I wouldn't sell that truck. It is perfect for day to day tree work. Close in the sides and stuff it with brush. In my opinion the only way to make that truck better would be to rear mount the loader for the ability to back down a drive and reach over a fence. Customers wouldn't gripe about the...

    2001 Unmounted 60-50 ALC Boom, Arbortech tool box, 11' chip box

    I am selling the above mentioned items, I bought back the truck after it was totaled by the insurance company when a large limb smacked the chip box when a rigging point snapped on a hazard tree. The insurance totaled the truck as it is time for the cables, hydraulics seals for the whole unit...

    Rig or chunk

    i dont understand the "need" for more and more rigging gear. I used to block, pulley, or ring n ring everything. the only time i do this anymore is to reduce friction for the ground crew during winching operations or for setting rigging where i want it instead of where the tree dictates...
