I've only ever come across one for sale. And that was about 6 years ago.

I have Rayco catalogs going back to 2007. I do not see any listing for a log splitter, in any of those catalogs. I wonder when they last offered them??

They are still listed in the online catalog, Catalogue - Log Splitter LS2526 - RAYCO - (Version JPG) - page 2
I had to call last year to get a price on one, make sure you are sitting down when you call:msp_w00t:

It is strange that they list them there, but Rayco does not show them on their own website.

I understand their machine was priced pretty high, and there are a lot of nice splitters on the market now, at lower prices.
Also, Rayco has cut way back on their product lines. The have kind of retrenched, and dropped maybe half of the products they offered just two years ago.They have dumped all their crawlers, dumped the big crawler stump grinder, and only offer one forestry mulcher now. That is a big cutback. I think the economy is hurting them in a big way.

We run a few rayco grinders at my work and I was just at their headquarters a few weeks ago. They had a ton of machines of all makes in for service/repair. They really know what there are doing in the service division. They also had a bunch of new equipment finished or in the production line. So I think they are doing fine financially.
While there is definitely room for improvement in the product, the customer service is top notch. They fix our machines right away if it something that we can't do in-house, they deliver teeth to our shop or will meet us on the job site. They offer demo/rental units if needed too. I can't say one bad thing about the workers there. Now I would make some changes to there grinders and chippers, but overall, they are pretty damn tough.

They did stop making them last year or so I heard, but I bought one in 2009 and love it, got to be the best built and most heavy duty splitter ever made in my book!!! I've used this thing year around, year after year with no problems and it still looks new. I hate to hear they discontinued making them, I bet they had to make changes due to the economy.
