    I run a case 1840 skid steer for my tree work, with a root grapple. A bucket grapple is more versitle but will tere up more yards because you cant see very well where as a root grapple you can see through. I just leave my bucket on my flatbed so if I need it I just make a quick swap. Tracks are...

    should I rebuild my stihl 200T or just keep it for parts?

    You should sell it to me and buy a new one. How much. I would like to have it but really 600 will buy a new one here so 500 sounds like alot for a used one. They r kinda a pain to rebuild because the way they come apart, but very doable and I would be happy to help with pics or whatever U need...

My xpw is stock exept for muff and I love it, its power to weight is great...

    090 handle hose?

    I have a 090 that the handle is cracking and I was thinking about just putting heat shrink over it but havent decided yet. It works well on split or cracked axe handles but if you over swing and hit wood it will just break and peal.
