RCP57 is on a distinguished road
Default Re: Kenworth 850 Off Highway

Haha Tony B can help me drill holes in my next project...come to think of it, I would have drilled holes in my truck if I thought that I was going to find gold in it...
No work progress today but I did try to load and haul around my skidder for a bit. It is so nose heavy that the front motor runs out of grunt while trying to crawl up the ramps in reverse. If you load it head first it goes on fine but doesn't fit well on the deck that way. It looks like I really can't drive in the video(really can't) but if I don't start up the ramps crooked the blade hangs up. I guess if I ever finish the hydraulics that shouldn't be a problem... On a positive note though, the cable seems to hold the lowbed on the bunk perfectly!
