I did the chain thing for years and it sucks. I got a set of Macs ratchet straps and they are great. I called Macs directly to get mine, they are located in Sandpoint, ID and super nice to deal with. I do wish I had got the straps with the axle loops separate though for more versatility.

On a 700r4 neither would I. The junkyard is full of 'K' case 4x4 700r4's. But the TH350 is older and the 4x versions are getting harder to find. I only paid $45 for the new shaft which to me was easier than hunting down a 4x4 trans and paying a higher price for it.

If you are going to rebuild it anyways get a 2wd unit and buy a 4wd output shaft. 4wd trannys are harder to find so it can be cheaper/easier to get a 2wd tranny and buy the 4wd shaft. If you don't want to rebuild it then get a 4wd version to start with because the output shaft is the first...

Advance Adapters is where I got my dana 300 shifters. They sell a replacement shift rail for $36. Really quick and good service. http://advanceadapters.com/product/5041/O60039.html

Great name :awesomework::haha:

I look forward to seeing the video. :awesomework: Dead bird hill is badass. :011:

I should be able to make it up that weekend. :beer:

No I know, your first post made sense even to me. :beer: And yeah I would agree with you width has less to do with a roll than COG height. But suspension characteristics and momentum (inertia?) also are bigger factors than width.

Now take momentum into account. Or one rig crawling and another rig mashing the throttle. Or one rig with stable suspension and another rig unloads and over it goes. This is fun but the math part was confusing. :beer:

Wait, sorry I guess mine is a service box not a flat bed. But try these guys- http://www.wacnw.com/default.asp they are Stahl's local distributor.

I don't know about local but the one on my truck was made by Stahl. http://stahl.cc/

That is how I always thought a private ORV park should be set up- not open to the public but make it a private club where members pay annual dues. I think that would bypass a lot of the liability. I also think users would take better care of an area if they were paying members. It would...

I've been working on my XJ and so far I have about $300 invested in it. It is not yet ready for trails but it will be done all on the cheap, all junkyard **** and spare stuff laying around. 1985 XJ = free 4.3L v6 = $100 700r4/NP231c = $120 Complete TBI intake and harness = $80 Still needs...

Hence the 'gentle' part... gotcha. :awesomework:

:haha::haha::haha: That drawing is awesome! :awesomework: and it is pretty much what I had pictured in my mind. But what is protecting the ram (and stuff back there)? As the log swings fore and aft it may raise and lower from the pendulum effect.

:hi: Sorry just trying to be helpful. I've moved a log or 2 before. I'll crawl back in my hole now. :booo:

I have seen skidders and dozers drag logs through brush and stumps and **** you would NEVER (want to) take a buggy through. In the grand scheme of dragging logs out of the woods the Sac-up trail is a breeze. Hell just drive the log truck up there. :redneck: And yes I have driven both in...

That happens to the front of my YJ from time to time. Usually just flex it on something or hi-lift the frame and they pop right back.

Money I think using your buggy for something like this is a bad idea. This is what they make log skidders for. Or tractors. (tread lightly, I know) That being said I would love to help you FYSU and I have 2 empty bays in the shop if you need. Welder, grinder, drills, all that stuff. As far...

Exactly. Grants and subsidies are the only way it would survive. Be sure to state that in the business plan you show the bank.
