thanks vanisle

spent some time on my stuff yesterday. I put new esc + 2.4 ghz radio in my 5900 , got that bug fixed . then totally move drive componants on this 1 . The darn coupling kept loosening between the 2 trans. so I moved the axial trans. behind the cab and used 1 of those dog bone shafts that seem to accumulate with no use . Results are great , must have had just a slight miss alignment . Finished the body work and pushed the paint , a little orange peel but the sun is working that out now .







thats it for a little bit till I get some other stuff caught up .

In case you haven't seen it, here is a build thread for "Kong."

http://tow411.yuku.com/topic/43285/t...port-unit.html

There are plenty of pictures of a B&B 80 ton rotator on a Paystar similar to yours, although I think the photo you showed was a Miller rotator.

Steve that is going to be a beast. I can't wait to see her finished and doing a rotated recovery. With the wrecker I have now and the one that is on the way I'm tempted to buy one of those cheap chinese ones and beat it up a little for the tow's to have something on the hook.

Default Re: IH5070 Paystar 6X6 now a log truck

I got tired of this sittin and the rotator was just not looking good on this chassis and lost interest in it for a bit so the rotator is on the shelf for the next IH chassis . So now it's going to be a self loading log truck with a pup . I got the boom base made up tonight and mounted to the frame . I'll get pics up as I get more done tomorrow I'm back out of the shop for another week
