    Looks like a good bit of equipment. What kinda money if ya don't mind me asking? Cheers
    Looks like a great yoke for dehorning bigger animals too.

    its the same as the one in the video,i think it was 300 but they sent another bracket so we will weld that to the crush at the other farm and just take the lifter itself, it is just held with a bolt and couple of pins
