Title: Any good salvage yard around?
Post by: shawn55 on September 24, 2017, 10:00:27 PM
Does anybody know of some good salvage yards around that might have some good fenders.for my timberjack. I've heard c5 tree farmer fenders would work also. Thanks

Northern Timberline is supposed to have quite a salvage yard up in Littlefork, but they're pretty proud of their junk from what I hear.

Superior parts in Marenisco Mi maybe worth a try.

Looking for the big full wrap fenders like the bolt on ones on the tree farmers. I called all over the US cant find any. Maybe somebody on the fourm knows of some laying around that could help. Thanks

Got a set  of a C5 free to a good home , but you have to come and get them. :D  I am in Ontario probably around three hours from Detroit. I know trucking will be the killer, just had to throw it out there. :)

You might be able to have them freighted pretty cheap by calling a load broker.  A hotshotter who went up to canada and is trying to build a load to get back down doesnt have tons of options besides deadheading.  The trick is having the load posted on a board.

Here you go
The skidder is kinda boxed in with no batteries and hasn't run for a few years. I am not taking those fenders of, until somebody shows up at my door and says
...... " yes I would take them, can I give you hand with something ? "..........
My plans have changed for the C5 , so the winch and the arch will go too some day also free to a good home, but the person has to put at least some effort in it.  ;D
If you're interested you can pm me.
