- A day cut short on a 664C Clark Skidder due to major rim failure. Watch video to see how it happens. #fail #failure #blowout #flat #forestryequipment #logging #clark #fire #firewood #husqvarna #offgrid #alberta #cummins #forest #retro #reforrestation #machinary #clark664C #logging #stihl #breakdown #downtime
Love being in the woods on the ol' skidder!
Best old skidders. ever built. Ran one for my Dad 30 years ago.
I Love these old machines
Be sure to check your tire air pressure anytime you have someone else change a tire for you. look's like a new/fairly new tire, if you had it done at a tire shop and it was worked on by someone not used to working with off road tire's they can overinflate them it happens more often then you would think. You will get a rupture/burst tire or a rim can and will split like yours did. 12-16 psi max for most large off road tire's any more and they become rolling bomb's. Skidder rims are pretty tough unless they are rusted through but yours looks pretty good yet anyways something to check into, take care.
Great point...I will ensure this happens with the new one
Yes. Over inflation. Best to check the other three. Should be able to release the air pressure….porter power it back in and weld it.
That is a good point...I will do that...thanks
it's had water in it mate, to weigh it down. You'll probably find rust inside the rim. That's the only reason i can think of.
I think you are right...I will let you know once I get the tire off and on the new rim.
Did you get her welded back together?
Will be posting a video soon
Weld it up! Easy fix
I will have to see what it looks like once I get the tire off...I was thinking the same thing but only if internally it is in good shape.
