Found a great new purpose for my son's Go-Kart, towing around the log splitter! How do you lug yours around your property? Pictured is my son's TrailMaster 150XRX with the Craftsman 27 ton splitter hooked up!

Maxxhaul baby! I have some inclines and my splitter weights 647 pounds, but I figure it will keep me in shape. Without the dolly you can barely pick up the tongue of the splitter.
When I had mine I also used old Lawnmower. Did the job just fine. Used to haul 4-5 hundred lbs of wood with it too. It finally gave up the ghost.
And also if you blow out a tire pulling it down the road with a pick up, you will never know like we did. After that, we only haul it on a trailerMost of them say they are road towable--- well only if you stay under apx 20 mph- above that depending on the road you might end up with it on your front hood. There is no suspension components on most of them so they just start bouncing around like a super ball back there. So if you have any road distance to go at a reasonable clip best to trailer it.
What kind of splitter do you have? Nice set up by the way.I pull doubles behind the tractor to save time loading the trailer.View attachment 248472View attachment 248473
Off topic, but is that the original front end for that tractor? I don't know much about old tractors, or any tractors for that matter, but that one looks nice.I pull doubles behind the tractor to save time loading the trailer.View attachment 248472View attachment 248473
Thanks. I think it is the original front end. It was extended in width to accommodate the loader. The loader is tremendously strong with a high lift. The reason I removed the loader is because the loader makes it very difficult to exit the operators seat. Perhaps I will add a roll bar of some sort to protect the operator.Off topic, but is that the original front end for that tractor?

That's wicked! I want to get a forestry cage put on my tractor. Most likely it will wait until I build a garage and buy a welder and then I'll make it myself. That's a really sharp tractor you have!Thanks. I think it is the original front end. It was extended in width to accommodate the loader. The loader is tremendously strong with a high lift.
