pretty much.

See those two spools on the back end? I assume those are somehow attached to the tracks so they can move each side up and down independently to adjust it.

Thanks

We rounded the curve I think it was in Albuquerque and there as a trailer park up on a hill, and higher above it were huge boulders that if they came lose, well, not so good for the mobile homes or those living in them.

Sometimes life is more interesting and exciting than others.

There is a video on youtube in which a large industrial chimney is being taken down using a mini ex (with hammer) hanging from a crane cable. He used the backfill blade to buck against the chimney to control swinging.
