Forestry mulcher

What would you guys see as the feasibility of a 2200 lb 60 inch forestry mulcher on the front of a jd350 straight 6 way blade? Granted hydraulic flow and cooling were taken care of by a seperate engine on the back with enough cooling? Jd 450?

concept of track wear

In trying to find out the wear of chains, I only see references to guying the proper gauge to figure it out. Why is this? I have seen it enough times that i believe there must be some truth to it.. but cant figure out what the difference is in finding doing measurements and going from there. Again, ...

Allis Chalmers wd45 brake job
