    He also could have un-curled the bucket (unless it won't fit between the tracks) until the back of the bucket rested on the frame rails. I have never had much luck tying the bucket down though with things settling when I have tried that, unless the dogbone is also supported.

    Anatomically, I guess one could call it the "wrist". Here's a pic of a CX-800 dogbone that Zoe wouldn't even tackle.........;)

    @Oxbow if he went through Alpine he would get a talking to cause the way he has his flags on the rear aren't at the widest point of the load!

    The 450 ' s I hauled are bout 99000 lbs. I'm wrong they are 470 JD' s. That's with bucket and thumb.
     
    Tug Toy and Oxbow Thank this.
