Winch

pulled the plug today and ordered a Norse 350 skidding winch. Very excited as I have many trees down that are in spots that I cannot drive near. Pictures to follow.

 

Jealous!

 

What will your wife say about the wench ?

 

How far away can you practically pull a tree with one of those? Will it work well if the soil is very soft and wet?

 

I have a farmi winch that I changed to 100 feet of 1/2 inch cable with 8 sliders on it mounted on a 80 horse 4x4 tractor. It will hook and pull a cord tree length no problem. If it's really sloppy or steep you have to back down the load

 

I used mine hill billy engineered winch tonight for the first time. Holy cow this is awesome!

 

as promised. Tomorrow it begins.

 

Awesome!

 

I have to say labonville had it here within 48 hours of the order. Had to shorten the pto shaft slightly, but they install the cable, adjust the brake and after an hour it's ready. Very impressed. Looking forward to pulling logs to me instead of carrying rounds a few hundred feet.

 

I have to say, this thing works great. Pulled several trees up the hill about 75 ft. For any guys with a tractor,this is a great investment.

 

Looks like it works great!!

 

Sweet! Look out trees, there's a new sheriff in town

 

I like it, a lot! And your tractor too, looks like the perfect setup to me

 

That is a awesome set up. Both the tractor and the winch!

 

I will post a few more pictures this weekend, but I put the hydraulic grapple on in place of the forks so I am now into hoarding mode full swing.
