Ordered this a few days ago so that I could pull my log splitter around the property with my Pioneer. Being that the hitch on the Pioneer is so low , this brought it up to a perfect height , so I could leave the splitter hooked to the pioneer while using it. Installed it tonight and it is perfect !!!

Bet you’re liking that log splitter too. I broke down and got mine about a year ago, I rather enjoy stacking up wood now. :cool:

I rented one for the camp last year. Got it for the weekend for $50. And it was big and brand new. We did around 5 cords in three hours. I cut it already. I was splitting he was putting the wood on. It worked great. I’ll never split again with an axe.

Makes for a nice picture

It is pretty, and it just started snowing again. This moisture is sorely needed in this country, so I’m not complaining, just pointing out that I can’t do any trail riding. There’s 1-2’ of snow in the mountains and my P1K bogged down and stopped, even in 4 lock and low range in 10-12”. Presumably the stock BH 2.0’s aren’t suited to the snow.

I should have bought one years ago , me and the wife totally enjoyed using it. No more splitting by hand!!!!
Yeah, that’s what I thought when I brought mine home last year, for what they cost, why did I split wood by hand for 22 years???? And, now splitting wood is something my wife works with me on but never could before, so that’s a plus too!

I bought an electric/hydraulic, 5 ton, 115 volt log splitter, for a couple hundred bucks, and it splits all of my hardwood without problem. I love using it, and you're right, no more swinging that splitting axe, it's now more fun than work.
