New to me. Bigger than what it seems in the FB ad. Old, square nuts and bolts. Only found one picture of the same kind. Darn heavy, had to put on my counterweight. Drum is 30 inches dia, 60 inches long will be a while before I get a chance to figure it out. 1E00C5A0-639E-485B-A5A4-C1491FBC8F7C.jpeg

More searching leads me to believe this is a Killefer manufactured unit. Found a video of one behind a small crawler.

Really enjoyed those videos. Never seen one of those work before. Pretty interesting piece of equipment. Have fun moving some dirt!!!!

Ya, saw those vids a while ago. Thought it was a neat attachment. Never thought I'd ever see one around here. When I spotted the ad, had to jump on it, even if it needed some fixing. Metal is my thing. For $100 and just over an hr drive, couldn't pass it up. Found a partial brass tag riveted on, all that's left says Richard. Some hisrorical stuff from California has an old pic of a guy sitting in one of these, 2 1/2 yrd model. The linkage assembly on the hookup to pull is the same as on mine. Still searching for info of course.

Metal is my thing.
We never would have know that, based on your username. :laughing:
That looks like a unique attachment, you will have some fun figuring it out and using it. Please post some before and after pics or some video.

You'll definitely know you have it on behind you,when it hooks in. We had 2 different one's years ago. You can move a lot of dirt with them, if you stay with it.

I'm one step above the tumblebug, with this Overland Scraper, made in California. Supposedly made for the N series Fords. Not sure I'd want to pull it with and N series, unless it lots of front ballast. I've pulled the front wheels off the ground on the Massey 180 I had, when I've hooked a rock.
