    Rock picking...rock grapples vs robo bucket or flexxfinger bucket

    The leon is very similar to the degelman , they will pick a lot of groud in a short period of time, the rotary flexxifinger one is slow by comparison but yea I hear you they need a tractor, and from time to time you need all your iron. Here are there web sites if your interested, these...

    Underbody diesel tranfer tank?

    I would buy new tank your size you need. But if u can find what you need used it will work , just might be way more time and might be worn from gravel or the saddles ect..

    Underbody diesel tranfer tank?

    I think a second Aluminum 50 gal tank would be your best bet. go to fort gary or any truck parts place with measurements in hand and buy tank and mounts... then like was mentioned mount pump and hose in a lockable jockey box for security. Only thing you may need is to get a shop to drill a big...

    BC logging equipment left to rust

    Silly question...Why is logging dried up? Is it the trees are too small? I know we still buy /need wood? With the pine beetle ect I would think this iron would be going like crazy to log it out and stop the bugs? Also why are guys sitting on fairly recent iron like that t800 and those cat...
