Default Polaris 6x6

I just put some new shoes on the back, aggressive and lookin good, these things are a bugger but I got em on, I was told ya cant do it at home but I did it, I made a jig to break the bead it sure helped and without it I can say it would have been next to impossible

here are some randome pics




this one shows the 3k winch and also a nut sack



my new aluminum top and back. the top is 1/4" thick and tough




I still need to put some new safety glass in the front from when my head took the old one out


and this is my boom setup for pullin trees during firewood season

HEY WHITMORE, The way I break the bead is, I get a wood fence post and put it on top of the tire{make sure it doesn't touch the rim}then drive your truck on top of the wood fence post, the weight of the truck will break the break the bead !!!! works like a charm.

and it works awsome too..its better than I thpought it would be, I have a 24" saw and I can tell you that with this boom setup I CAN pull a 24" tree , hell I pulled it down the canyon across the creek and up the other side to the truck and trailer..................and all the limbs were gone .........the back axle on the 6x6 is solid so when the weight of that tree set in there is some serious traction, put er in low range and outa there
