Grapple Truck Body Build

[Randy McKenzie]

I'm not sure about galvanized but there is a grade called Chromate and it's similar to galvanized.

Not sure my barko dealer listed it. Thinking of building a few of them a year just kinda feeling the market out.Ran into a problem with measurements I pulled off of Barko website and had to modify it as far as price probably around the 150s

Barko was made aware of the measurements on there website and is willing to pay for the the bed needing to be modified. Thanks Randy (Quality Equipment) for going to bat for me on this issue.

can you expand on that at all? what measurements were screwed up?

Truck went back to Randy's (Quality Equipment) for the loader to be mounted. Should have it back by the end of the week. I ordered a rotobec 045w with the W-RT222 rotator

There is a valve that sticks down from under the turn table that works the foot pedal (swing of the boom)that wasn't factored into there measurement and we had to order the loader from barko and I didn't have anything to measure off of besides there website once I took the truck out to randy is then when we realize somthing wasn't right

Your hydraulic fluid gets that hot you need a cooler for it?

 

[joshua glackin]

I live in florida!!! The cooler you can keep it the better in the summer

Just WOW!

 

[Gorman]

Not to dwell on the cooler topic but it just seems that you'd only be using the loader for about ten minutes at a time on a job. Then the pto is disengaged and you drive to point B and use the loader again for about ten minutes to unload the logs. How does the oil get that hot during that time?

Hey Gorman most of the time your right it doesn't run very long and your done, but in that case I just don't turn it on. I can turn it on and off manually. But this weekend I'm setting it up to run off of a thermostat
