Arggg, pulling tops first, reminds me of my first day running a swing grapple skidder, theys were all laid out top first and spent the day breaking out tops trying to skid em

A little before my time but I remember being around that old 210 Prentice with the five sticks and the old Mack with the silver 92 under the hood.

most o my younger days were on 2 sticks. 5+4, 6+4.

You would have been making some good music drivin up and down

They sound great from a distance but if you have to work or drive one it’s a different story and they don’t have the torque for out here.

I work on the detroit's all the time, and drive em, but I can no longer hear anything, well worth it if you ask me lol. Thinning contractor I work for has 2 mountain logger model H with 3-53 and straight pipes. His lowboy is a w900l kenworth with 8v92TA SILVER series and it's pumped up, if you keep your foot in it with a load and hit 1900 rpm it will spontaneously remove the rear driveline. Serious torque but only at high rpm

"drive it like ya dont like it. it'll take 2500."

I've seen 71's and 92's take over 3k tuned up. Hell a CAT heavy haul tune will turn 2300rpm.

Only ever rode in an 80's international, 9370? 6v92 and boy was it loud to ride in, won't shift low like a caterpillar.
