4x4 PTO Driven Timber Trailer BUILD Ep.12 - Chain Housings Completed
Fabricating a differential frame bottom brace for the front end. Might have to make it beefier. Finishing up welding the first chain housing I started fabricating back in the second episode of this series (watch it here: https://youtu.be/kYmk73nMXjk). Receiving the axle moving hydraulic cylinder by courier and trying it out in the frame. Mounts need to be fabricated. Preparing parts (grinding zink off bolts for welding etc), setting up and completely fabricating the second chain housing from start to finish. The parts were already cut on CNC plasma beforehand next to the first chain housing parts. Getting bent 6mm (1/4") sheet metal all squared up on the welding table was an operation by itself. But it was manageable. And so we're on our way to completing this trailer. Can't wait! Thanks for sticking around. Soon we'll haul some timber! Stay tuned!
