I am new to the forum and enjoy reading all the different articles.  Put a 4BT in my C4 Treefarmer last year, it had a gasser before that was unreliable and finally got fed up. The 4BT is the way to go, lucky if I burn 5 gallons a day and endless power.  Only problem the machine has is the Gearmatic 9 winch very strong but for ever working on it, I can take them apart blindfolded now.  Looking for ideas of what it could be replaced with that would be more reliable.

I have a gearmatic on my 240 was same as you always working on it till I finally bit the bullet did a complete overhaul on it now it works great. My biggest suggestion is to rebuild and keep it covered when not in use. Also run it in and out a few times if it's parked for any time
