RE: Re: RE: New owner of MT250 crane

Somehow I knew that was coming, lol. Ah but that's a really big crane. Can you even move that on public highways without a special permit? I know the local crane outfit here has to jump though all sort of hoops to move any of their cranes that are that size due to the weight and the "damage" to the highways.

I can say that I would have absolutely no use for one of those. Yet I found my searching GL for one near me.

Highway, no need. Get it here, and I could make a giant swing for the kids. Hey, maybe that would convince the wife. I think I am on to something.

That crane will pay for it self in know time.....We use a guy that has the civy modle for installing roof top a/c units..... I think if it is under 100,000 lbs. its not to much of a problem, but you might need another truck to move the counter weights...takes about 20 minites to set up.........

Wow, that's a beauty! Hey, if you decide that you need something smaller and more portable, I have a 5-ton wrecker that I'd trade for it... :D

You know that crane is made for being airlifted all those tie downs . I sold mine last year in July and missing the day it left on the trailer . Mine was painted white over the camo paint. :cry: aua

Cool crane! I see the crane is powered by a Detroit. What type of engine powers it down the road? So, where'd you pick it up? GL?

I'm moving this to the auxiliary equipment forum by the way.
