    Challenger logging trucks

    Not sure if we are parting out 2187 or not, as it was now we aren't supposed to be taking any parts off the truck. The engine on the other hand is feeding the rest of our 71s.

    Had a 144 verticle travel shaft shear off the other day. Surprise Surpise putting 7/8 track pad bolts into the shear pin coupler isnt a good idea. Idiots

    2213 Turbo let go and we found oil coming from inside the air to air. So it got a new air to air.

    Challenger logging trucks

    That would be 2181, she had an engine failure back when times were hard and money was scarce. The original plan was to put a new engine in but in order to keep the other trucks running we had to part her out. Ill take some pictures next week.

    Well, 2172 came back into the yard this week. The change from Pacific blue to Western yellow and green is quite the change. Camera isnt working right now but in a few weeks I should have some pictures. Truck looks pretty nice, rebuilt engine and transmission.

    My chargehand told me Franklin River, he could be wrong. It had a bottom end failure a few months back, so they are going to throw a Series 60 in it now.

    #1502 a 144 that was rebuilt some years ago, still looks pretty good. WFP Gold River I believe this was the 1481, an 044 at WFP Gold River. Don't believe we have this machine anymore.
