you would kill yourself up here doing that hualing logs. The tundra could barely break trail last year for bear season.
the most we ever put on our quad is roughly 700-900 lbs with the heaveyest rear shocks on the market. Nice setup.
has anybody try chains? I hear they work good.
we put realy wide teflon runners on our sleds so they don't sink.

 

papps,
The way the sleds distribute the weight of the logs there is ZERO tongue weight on the quad so loading them up puts no stress on your shocks. I used a 2 wheel cart/trailer that I have earlier in the winter when the bogs were frozen but no snow cover and it had noticeable tongue weight and I could feel the load pulling on the quad in the rough spots. Sleds are 200% better than a cart. On a flat level trail you can unhitch the sleds loaded with logs and pull them by hand (for a foot or so LOL) they slide so easy.
Some people use chains but I never had the need for them especially with the Mud Bugs on. I think they would put alot of stress on your rear diff.
We got a rediculos amount of snow last sunday upwards of 50cm and high winds 100km/h made for plenty of drifts up to 8' high. I made a few runs in the woods with the Bravo but last night we got another 20cm or so. I'll get the bravo in againg to break the trail but really we need a bit of rain after I break it and then some frost so it will be hard enough to get the quads in.
we had to get a backhoe in to clear the drive way took him 45-60min to get it done, i guess it would have taken about 10-12 hours to shovel it. here are some pics of the snow fall snow clearing

 

No, the 900 ibs thing i was talking about was a brown bear my dad and his guide and the hunter all together on the quad and thats realy pushing the suspention. Ya, thats true their isn't much stress on the rear shocks.

You have a bravo. their a good little skidoo, very lite. A F7 with a longtrack and 2' paddles, moutian cluthing got stuck on a hillside near buy my place snow was deep thier. We have about 3.5-4 feet roughly in the hills it's worse.

 

oh I get you now with the 900LB thing. The most I put on the bike was myself (185Lb, my father about 190Lbs, 2 quarters of moose 120LB each plus hide) thats like 600-700LBS. I adjusted the shocks to the firmest setting they didn't bottom out but I could deffenitly feel the weight. We drove like this for about 2.5km 1.5km of that was muskeg. Here is a pic of it moose pic

 

I hate going thro boogs with lots of wieght.
How do you send pictures?

 

what do you mean by "ho do you send pictures?"
Do you want to send them via e-mail? or are you looking to post them on the internet like I have done?
I just signed up for free on yahoo photos and upload my pics there (very simple on screen instructions for uploading) and put links to the site for viewing.

 

Good topic. No pics but we burn wood in my shop and dads house here in Minnesota. Pull two trailers and a splitter hooked together like a train. Only have 160 acres of river bottom so we split and stack down there. Use 3 sportsmans, tractor supply co. splitter, 2 atv carts, husky 49 20", rancher 61 20", stile 250 16". Got our first snow last weekend 9", 10-15" comming tonight.
