4x4 Timber Trailer Build - START to FINISH

Building a 4x4 PTO driven timber trailer with hydraulic crane from start to finish. This project has been a dream of mine probably for a decade and now it's reality. The custom PTO shaft between UTV and the trailer still needs to be fabricated.

Trailer specs:
28x11-14" tires & 14" rims
width 1500mm, length 5000mm, height 1900mm
tandem axles with homemade chain housings
BMW E39 530D differential with 2.81 gearing (identical to the UTV diffs)
hydraulic crane with a boom & grapple for easier log loading & handling
independent hydraulic power pack
radio controlled hydraulic winch on the boom
load capacity - 1-1,5 metric tonne
