I have two Super 6 loaders that I am considering scraping or parting out. I am wondering if others have faced the same question. Any wisdom would be appreciated. Is there a market for parts?

There might be with Old Iron Habit on here. He's got one. There are still quite a few around. You might get lucky. As cheap as scrap is by me it wouldn't take much to make parts worth more than scrap.

There is always a market for parts for any older machines. With scrap prices worth almost nothing it is a bad time to scrap anything. After hauling there is not much left. What type of front gear is on them. I am looking for a standard set of forks, and also for a log grapple for a Super 6. What is wrong with them that you are considering scraping them. Starting a private conversation with you. Click on the envelope in the upper right corner of the page to respond. It should have a red number one on it when I get it posted.

Edit: By the way welcome to HEF. Lots of good people on here.

I was wondering if you still have the pettibones. I have a Super 6 with a chewed up rear axle center section. I'm very interested in parts
