Really impressed you got out at the end,that got soft quickly. I put timbrens on all my trucks they work great and they’ll keep from breaking a spring. They only work when your loaded, I think there right around 215.00 for the rears of most pickups . When your loaded and going fast thru the field is when you’ll snap a spring, and you have to keep momentum or you’ll get stuck.... you’ll feel the truck firm up a lot with a load when you have the timbrens ,especially towing the dump trailer .

A great wood find. I come by locations where lots are being cleared from time to time, but after you get a few loads, someone else joins the party. I've always been a Ford pickup guy, but those Toyotas have an amazing 4wd system, but I do agree that you were wise to stop when you did. Nothing gained by getting stuck.

If you could take and put a set of tracks on one trailer or even two trailers then they sell the tracks also for the pickup you would have no problem getting in and out in that muddy ground we used to do that when I was younger because we get into areas that were had there were semi bogs and it worked really well because it gives you a lot of flotation to go over the the wet ground even with a heavy load

I agree with one of the earlier commenter's . Work something out with your wood guy. He has the truck and tongs. Maybe there will be a cold front arrive soon and ground could remain firm for a day. He would probably want shaved logs piled up where he could load them in 10 min. Surely there is someone local that has some type of large truck for hauling you can work something out with
@InTheWoodyard4 жыл бұрын
The land owner had three loggers look at it and they all said no thank you, it's to swampy and wet and low value wood. So I asked my logger and he gave me a price and for what I would have to pay for a little bit more I can get premium wood like oak, cherry,maple, hickory, locust. So I just go cut when I have time and space for it. That is the other problem, if I hired someone to cut and haul the wood for me it would all have to be done all at once and I don't have room for it.
