mrsmackpaul 3,261 Posted July 31 Shifted a Ford H47 CK excavator yesterday and today, had a crook final drive Was quite the challenge to load, had to winch one side and drive the other good side, a lot of slipping and sliding to get it on Came off easier First Ford excavator I have ever seen in the flesh Paul 2 Quote Link to comment
