Not picking on you, but gear reduction doesn't increase horsepower. Actually it will slightly decrease it due to frictional loss. BUT, it will increase torque.

I'm sorry, but when we switched hosts/servers, an IP change was unavoidable. :(

I know on my M543, I use 4th or 5th gear. So that's 1:1 in 5th. It's just idling at that speed. I don't have a dyno graph. But for arguments sake, let's play with whole numbers. The LDS makes 180hp. Let's say it makes 10% of that power at idle speeds. That's still 18hp and a LOT of torque.

The F16 canopy crane thingy I had a few years back had a dual pump system. One pump ran on 220V the other 24Vdc. What about doing something like that? When the truck is up and running, it could support itself that way. Then you could alternatively use a generator to power the AC motor. Or...

Wait, those pics on FB were of the wrecker's engine? It's a NHC 250 right? What happened?
