Nice find! That's how I power the large Commercial pump on my deuce crane truck. If you happen to have to pull the yoke off of that PTO...whatever you do- DON'T lose the nut. It's some crazy thread like 1-1/8"-28. I had make one by boring out threads on one that was just undersize then...

Maybe you want to reread my earlier post now? Center the crane side to side on the truck, figure where it has to be to rotate and not hit the cab and sock it down. Yes, any large attachment is capable of damage to the truck frame but you have to use common sense.

Why double the frame?!? The base under the knuckle boom is what spreads the load out. Standard frame is sufficient...outriggers take the loaded load off the frame (you know what I mean) and the frame base spreads it out on the frame. The 'mog spider frame is a good idea but overkill on a...

Yeah...I'm really impressed so far, very cool girl! :)

I should soon have the steel for my frame base then I can lift it off, get that fabbed and get'er on for good! A month or so ago I did not renew gf's contract (ha,ha) and have a new one so you'll prolly beat me getting the crane on! :mrgreen:

You could prolly get away with it but if you look at that front the ends with the rolled corners you end up with maybe 1-1/2" of stiff side height...ya follow? Those sides are what make up the strength when used in this application. Your heavy wall 2" is better than nothing...but I think I'd...

Okay- I see a LOT of these come through where I work. That crane is rarely bolted directly onto the frame. Usually there is a 3x3 box or some other sort of tube steel base boxed closed that is 3' to 4' long to spread the load of the crane over more of the frame. On my M931A2 I have is mocked...

YES! Was very happy to luck into that...let me tell you. It also has an extra set of lines off the rotator so I can put a grapple or some other hydraulic driven attachment on it. Good eye Gimp! ;)

Yep. :mrgreen:
