    Steelsoldiers' 404 goes on a 3000lb diet!

    Cranetruck aka Bjorn paid a visit to my house this week with his crane truck deuce. I had stripped the radio box down to the bare bones earlier in the week so when he arrived I just removed the 9 mounting bolts and the mighty HIAB knuckle-boom did the hard work. Thanks to Bjorn and his...
