Dutch DOT Is worse then NY DOT?? WOW :cookoo:Shows what I know. :( I never thought that possible. ( well never thought that over seas would that bad ). Live and learn. How about Insurance? Here they want you to have over a Million dollar one for dump trucks. 5 Ton

I still want one. :cry:

At one time I owned I guess s what they called a mast luncher? It had pipe with collars welded on ether and and you put it in this thing and cranked it up. Got another tube, locked it on and cranked it up. It had cables to hook to it to steady it as you got higher. There was 2 of them in...

Why I have one? Check out the picture to the left. WHY NOT ! It started out to be a father n son project. Now it is a father project. He moved to find work. AND I burn fuel. :driver::jumpin::drool:[thumbzup]

When I did mine, ( hence the nick ) I used low range and 1st gear. Pulled it out the gate. It was in the day time and the smoke rolled. It was exhibiting only because it was way out side the rules of the pull. Did it for 4 years in a row. ( wish I had some picture now ) Last year the sled guy...

Dates are marked. Now have to see if I can get them off. I'll bring the M543.a2 and (M1061.a2 maybe ) Matt

It was GREAT !!! Got to meet Maddawg308, Doghead again and some others. I got there late but it was well worth the trip. Picked up a few things. Got to look at some GREAT vehicles. Even fell in love with a few (wife had some tissue to wipe up the drool) AND I was reminded the we had a small...

52 I need to retire now. Have way to much fun to get old.

Looking for a few things. A chain and clevis for the front winch of a wrecker Right rear stab pocket for the same. A M1061.a2 ext. tong. Here is that post. ( can not find the picture now ) http://www.steelsoldiers.com/salvage-yard-info/9280-looking-tongue-m1061-5ton-trailor.html :deadhorse:aua...

Not sure if this is the right place to put this but if not I'm sorry. I am still looking for these parts. If anyone is selling please PM me. Gilbert is a great place to me. Thanks Looking for the rear right side stab pocket that are on the 5 ton wreckers. Front winch chain and the glad to hook...

Just check out the picture to the left.

I do the same. If I sold it my son would disown me. The wife would divorce me. Next doors kids would ?? I could only imagine. I think I will keep it. Maybe get aother one just to keep the peace.

Looks like a good pond sight.

I think most of the axles are the same on those 5 ton tailors. Take one of the other wheels apart and get the numbers off of them. once you get that a parts house ( most likely a truck one ) will be able to get you what you need.

There are many ways to get it a little quieter. One guy I know moved it to the back by the rear wheels. Here is what I did. There was a lot of others that did it to. These trucks where build with the young and slim in mind. ( I am not that slim ether ) Here is the other tread...

Wow I would have given you $200 before you did it in. Newer then what I am driving now.:sad:

Cleared a small spot for a garage to house the wrecker. Took down 14 trees. 12 came out with the stump. Who needs chain saws. :jumpin:

That is why the YOUNG guys are in the army and not old guys like us. [thumbzup]rofl:-)

Like what was said, These where made for the young. This most of us are not. ( me included ) The health thing is far the better way to go but not always the practical to all of us. ( me included ). At 52 and 238 lbs. It would not hurt to drop some more. :deadhorse: For those that have lost good...

I tried to do a search on GL. No such luck. So close but yet so far. aua:cry: About 4-5 weeks ago there was a pallet of draw bars in a GL lot. I seem to remember that it was in VA, NC or SC but could be wrong on locaton. In fact, someone posted a picture of them asking what they were. This...
