Lights

If anyone is interested I have a couple of original lights I would part with if the price was right. Nice shape, 12volt. Tom.

ID

Rubber tracks, hmm yea that seems right. Still a nice unit, the scarifier makes it very cool. Top speed around 35 mph i bet, lol.

Crawler ID

Does ASV or something like that make a crawler like that. Sometimes they are on ebay. I drove to Wisconsin to look at one like that before. Tom.

H3

Hey that is a nice machine. I looked at some case 310s and h3s before I bought my first 440. Not sure how the parts supply is for them, but the h3 is a nice machine. Thanks, Tom.

Hey, maybe it had a log arch with it once. I have seen towable ones that would have a setup like that. Very nice 440 btw, I should move to Oregon. Tom.

road grading

At work they have a 6 wing road maintainer that works pretty well on loose gravel, it is pulled behind a 3020 and is hydraulic up and down. I would say its 16 feet wide. I am not sure what the one you are talking about looks like. I do know that if you have potholes, you have to scarify down to the ...
