Hi abn deuce, It is a home made job, made out of a John Deere 2500 triple mower wheel carriage! How are you getting on with your airportable, any chance of any pictures?

HWade Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 Hello Jack You have made a nice job of that so far, looking really good, Heil tipping gear, the gear on the one I am restoring is Garwood, I think there is a slight difference. Nice to see the various engine parts painted oil filter ect. Keep up the good work. Howard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abn deuce Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 Over here We call that the hoist and there are number of differences between the Garwood and Heil units , the Heil being the more robust system in my opinion ,and uses lifting links that attach from the lifting lever assy to the dump body the Garwood has the cylinder basically attached directly to the lift arm assy to the dump body . both are shown in the TM 9-801 tech manual . Sorry no photo's of mine as nothing has happened to it , all that business of the economic problems over here . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
