Another pic....

I finished the first phase of building my custom bumper, now that the shop is slowing down and we have time to "goof" off. The next step is to build the brush guard, in which i'll go scavenge the steel for after lunch. What ya think? Not bad eh?

Were I live, we have the afternoon lady joggers going up and down the avenues, getting their daily exercise. Every time I pass one, I lay on the horn and give them a little "pep in their step"! Had one chase me once for three blocks! Scary ordeal!! (I bet the local armory gets all kinds of...

RE: Fire truck update Very good job devilman!! In the end, you will have a truck very worthy of your time and effort, and will do the job flawlessly!

Devilman, you've got yourself a trade!! BUT, you've gotta take her load a** little Boston Terrier dogs with you also!!! (3 of them, and they don't stop yapping, just like my woman!!) :driver:

Go in the picture album's, and you'll see several pics of the truck, especially me taking it in the local swamps! Tommorow I will post pics of the custom front bumper I finished and installed today! [thumbzup]

That is a great deal!! Can't find deals like that around here!!

How many people moved out of your way!!?? :D

Yeah, I have an extinguisher in the cab under the seat and one in the tool box. Once I switched off the truck, I grabbed the one under the seat, but the smoke had started to clear, and I saw no more flame, so I didn't have to spray it, thank god. I could have seen me calling for my lowboy to...

I hope i'm not the only one who has given their truck a name. I plan on stenciling my trucks name on the cab after she is painted. Oh, and her name? "Hercules"! Rather fitting, eh?

Awesome truck!! No telling what it cost!! [thumbzup]

Heres the wifey....no pics of the truck burning!! LOL

Well fella's, I had an interesting start to the morning....Don't try this at your local Pilot truck stop, please!!! I pulled up to the pumps in the rear in the ole' 5-ton bridge truck, had to get me some diesel in a 5-gallon can to run a tractor. As I pumped the fuel, several trucks were...

RE: Updated Photos of the little crane that could :funny:

I'm in the process of building me a crane that lifts with snatch blocks and winches....basically the same design as a strong arm with sheaves to lift with. It will also have a winch mounted directly to the end for lifting and recovery. We will see how this turns out!!

Have you tried to possibly adjust it? I have little experience with adjustment, but have seen an earlier thread with the same problem? Seems like adjustment fixed the problem.

Stump, heh?? Good luck! Pine tree?? I can shove them over easily with my bridge truck in reverse!! The roller on the rear helps the descent!! hee...hee...hee..... Someone wanna' challenge that I can!? I'll upload a video this weekend!!

Love the pics with the crane! Cranes come in VERY handy!!

I bet the power company doesn't foot the bill. If so, they would have already fenced the area off for no more dumping, but they can't, it's the legal right of way. And I KNOW FOR A FACT the sheriff's dept doesn't pay the bill!! Like I said, the towing company will get paid if the owner claims...

Sorry for the double post! :D
