I was surprised things went so well on my winch truck,however cable got off of a sheave and in a crack,took a while to get that back. Original 216 babbitt 51 3600 is still tuff,gin poles go up to 13ft. 6inch so gotta watch for limbs etc. Does about a ton,you know those railroad trucks you see with an autocrane on them ?? My crane is the first generation of those,only thing power is the actual winch. Great for anything heavy,have pockets for 1 1/2 pipe down low so you can set heavy stuff on there to get it off of your cable. Bed is 2 inch oil field pipe with "sucker" rod welded paralell to the frame so firewood trash falls on thru. Gonna go fire it up now,more later. fix | | | | | Joined: Dec 2018 Posts: 2,450 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Dec 2018 Posts: 2,450 | Martin I know...as I said not very sharp on computer tech Have a little camera I can gat photos to the computer,will see if I can get some shots today, Try to get them posted.
