SW Missouri | I run a CAT 320L, weighs about 46,000# in it's work clothes. Wouldn't want anything smaller unless I had a 300 size machine to do the big work. Find a lowboy or hire it hauled as you won't be happy hauling it on the dropdeck. I've hauled it on a 8' wide trailer but it's not very fun since the center of the tracks are basically on the edges of the trailer. It has 32" pads on it so total width is about 11'. I've been looking for a 35-40 ton folding neck lowboy to haul mine with but they are hard to find if you're looking for good and cheap. One thing I've learned about thumb's is to use a narrow thumb and bucket when handling brush. The wider they are creates more torque when big trees start rolling and twisting. Tears stuff up quick. | |

Lots of excavator questions.
