What should I trade my Clark 664 skidder for?
What should I trade my Clark 664 skidder for?
In my dream world I would sell my Clark 664 skidder and trade it for a Cat 518 or 525 cable machine and make the 240 my spare machine and the one I use to pull trucks in and out with. I want a machine with a dealer that stocks parts and does not have 10 different models they stock parts for and none of them mine.

What was the problem with the skidder rebuild?
The bushings were in at a slight angle and we had to put it together and then take it apart a couple of times to get a perfect fit so there would be no pressure on the pins when it went together. Leroy ran into another problem with the blade this week, he was hoping for more progress but Murphy’s Law always works.
Which is better the 648D or the skidder?
Let me tell you; The 648D is about 50x the skidder. And it fits through every trail I made with the twig farmer…steers about 60000% better. I will never own another cable machine, ever. If it don’t have a grapple on back, I don’t want it. Naturally, a winch on the grapple is a good idea. I will be adding one to this JD soon.

Can you run a fan on a Cummins skidder?
You would need to move your motor mounts forward a few inches and the clearance between the radiator and the fan is close, there are a few different fans you can run on the cummins and i would put the larger plastic one that runs off the idler pulley instead of the crank to get it up out of the belly pan.

Why is the blade on a skidder so narrow?
The blade is narrow for a good reason: If the blade doesn’t hit a tree in a tight turn, the tire won’t hit. Same in reverse, the tire misses the tree, the blade does too. Let me tell you, coming off the Tree Farmer, I get in a lot less trouble, and have 95% less scarred up trees.
