I'm impressed.  I am not much of a fabricator but certainly respect those who are.

Absolutely love it. Do you have a trailer hitch on the back so you can pull a small trailer to load up the split wood?

That is a great rig and just what most people would need. For the ones who want to get even more elaborate there is this.

    The "axle assembly"  - the hydraulic motor driven planetarys, wheels, tires and beam came from a large JLG boom lift.  I had to narrow the beam to fit.

    The steering linkage is what I have to change.  There is an arm attached to the spindle and this is where the steering cylinder attaches.  In this configuration the cylinder is in the way of the log lift when I want to move it to the left side.  When I change it I will be able to use the lift on either side.

If you have drive motors on both wheels do you need a steering system?  Think  zero turn lawn mowers.

Looks a little wimpy to me.
