the scammell is supposed to have a set of band tracks for the rear wheels, i have only ever seen 2 sets . both on pioners , are they still about ,:??? dose any one know for a set :??? .i have a set of chains for the front but i dont think they would be quite enough for a job i have been asked to do. a little while ago i was asked to pull out a JCB fast track with a roll on roll of container plus trailer half full of dirt.they were stuck in the bottom of an old water medow ,very wet and at the bottom of a hill.she performed well :-D ,the hardest job was pulling out the main whinch rope :sweat::sweat:.due to this the jobs are geting harder and i only charge for the diesel as they are mates in the forrestry. the next one is on wet green sand and if i cant get close it would be out of reach :shake:.we were waiting for a dry spell , just enough time to do my truck (i thought ),forcast rain :shake:. this time ill take a camara.:-D
