The M765A2 arrived today,. John at the Forestry Service threw in an extra tank with pump. And, it's full of diesel. The bed pockets took 45 minutes of pounding to get them up. It's missing a few parts but is in excellent overall condition. Engine is a 1D w/whistler.

It's missing the sheave with the hook, but came with one without the hook. It should work without the hook just a little more effort to get the boom over TDC. Really have not had time to examine it closely yet.

I'm considering taking it to Papago behind the wrecker.

Fantastic!!! Finally, someone with a trunnion. Please let me know how I can get a copy of it. Are there any engineering firms around you that could make a CAD drawing of it or something? You got one heck of a deal on that truck!!

I can't believe how unmolested that thing is.

Why do pipeline trucks have so many clearance lights?
