 :P I would like to add auto log stops and clamp to my 1600. Can any of you TK owners with full hydralics post or send me as many detailed pictures as possible so I can see what is involved in adding these to my TK1600?

Thanks Frank

Frank- There are some pics of the clamp assembly in my gallery in the TK2000 mods album.  I'll take some pics of the vertical log stops and get them to you later today.  I'll email them to you.

Is that a clamp or a log leveler? I will take as many picks and bits of advise I can get, thank you very much.

The pics I have in my gallery are of the modified TK 2-plane clamp.  I don't have any pics of the toe rollers (log levelers) 

I forgot to get the pics of the backstops today.  I'll get them tomorrow.  There are a couple in Larry's gallery.

It would not be easy or cheap to duplicate the vertical stops that are on the 2000.  You might want to think about just adding a hydraulic motor to your existing setup.  My opinion for what it's worth. :)

I like the vertical stops on my B20 and the TK 2000 are even better, no way your going to bend or break either of them.  Steve
