Pictures of your chipper truck, lets see them!

I love having small separate boxes like that in the back. Put the gas, oil & grease in those and keep that messy stink away from all of the ropes and climbing gear. Or keep it tool free and clean and use it for the first aid kit, dry clothes, extra new PPE, etc.

Gas and oil get their own greasy spot on the truck in a little tool box. The guys also use a microwave for lunch so bonus storage gets used up quick.
 
Thanks for the compliments guys. Truck got a little facelift this past winter, chipper will get cleaned up this winter. The roping bumper is pretty popular around here, its like having a grcs with a big block attached to it. The winch is a salvage from a junk digger derrick, works pretty good just doesn't land the brush on the feed table like the real setups.

You can remount that winch this winter while your prettying up the rest of the chipper.
 
Just reread this thread, there's a lot of sweet rigs on here. I'm in a market flooded with bucket trucks,so I keep my setup small and easy to maneuver in the places the bucket trucks can't fit.

I'm gonna copy the fairlead setup from the bc 1500 that I use at my 40hr a week job.
 
Why are my pics on their side? Anyway, the log truck is my baby. The trailer is a brilliant design. There are 2 side by side gang boxes for gear welded to the front. One for climbing and rigging gear and the other for saws and dirty stuff. Behind the is a rack for the grapple, a log cart and various stuff like cones. The swinger sits behind that and usually has forks on it. I was a fork nonbeliever and didn't understand why they didn't use the grapple until I say how much more precise you can get loading wood into the truck with the forks. There is a specific loading procedure and we can fit more wood stacked neatly in the truck than I have ever seen somebody do. Its amazing. Love this trailer. I think the other crew keeps their plywood in a rack on their trailer. We keep ours on the bed of the crane.

Try turning your computer on its side that might help lol
 
Speced out. It turns on a dime though it's pretty namuverable. We can exceed 44k with the drop down. W aren't in too many really tight neighborhoods and if so we just have to be smart about the routes we take.
