My cousin from Holdbrook maried a wheat farmer from Temora by the name of Erol Bishop.  |
G'day Robert,
Yes, the front wheel would be a castor wheel. I have a 12 ton high lift manual ram so it should handle the weight of the the timber truck bed and the cabs okay, I don't have remote hydraulics on my tractor nor a hydraulic pump operated ram so I have to do with what I've got.
Kind Regards
Lionel
