Have you had a chance to put the skidder to work yet?  Not sure if the weather has cooperated or not. We are getting snow in Southeast Ohio today.

BILL I got back today it's the first sence the 15th of November. I pulled logs from eight till noon and my temperature came up slow but once it reached 195 it didn't go any higher. Real pleased with the pulling power it pulls in third as good as second, now all I got to do is fine some dryer ground it was plenty wet where I was but with 24.5x32's they stay on top a bit better then narrow tires.I have a few jobs but know body will let me start them because its so wet around here today it was snowing but was only thirty degrees. Ive lined up a few smaller jobs where I can slip in and make three or four skids and be done. Not big money, but its better then messing around in the shop all day.

Keep that Detroit wound up tight Autocar we don't want that tran slipping.

Lumberjack48 if it wines any tighter you might see part of it laying in your neighborhood  . All joking aside your right about smoother shifting when shes wound up. For sure a guy can learn alot from this site !

A power shift is fun to run, when your twich is in line, winch up and head for the landing, when the Detroit cackles you pull a gear [ thats if your on a good skid trail ] darn i feel like I'm running it.] 

Thats one big horse you have, glad she's pulling for you.
