Looking good! After years of pushing a truck down the road that rear end is still helping to push another truck on down the road.

Thanks for the comment Jeff.

The videos above are some old ones and makes a lot of noise . I have removed the opposite wheel and axle and I think it is now quieter

The videos on the below link are more recent except for the first one .

Wayne, it seems to me in your chunker videos now the drum turns slower than in these videos. Did you change something or am I mistaken?

Good morning Mr. Bill .

I can use whatever speed that is comfortable for me. The tractor has a two speed PTO plus I can go from idle to fast .
