4x4 PTO Driven Timber Trailer BUILD Ep.1 - Introduction

Starting a new BIG build - 4x4 PTO driven timber trailer with a hydraulic crane/boom and grapple. It's for the homemade UTV I built last year. This video is just an introduction to the build series since sourcing parts is a bit delayed due to current extraordinary situation. But we will get there!

Trailer specs:
* 28x11-14" tires & 14" rims
* 1450mm/57" wide, length and height - unknown
* tandem axles with homemade chain housing
* BMW E39 530D differential with 2.81 gearing (identical to the UTV diffs)
* hydraulic crane with a boom & grapple for easier log loading & handling
* independent hydraulic power pack
* radio controlled hydraulic winch on the boom
* load capacity - unknown

Stay tuned for the next episode & thanks for watching!
