so i got this truck.
so i got this truck i've had for a while. its the some of all the spare parts and ideas i've tried or had. so i figure it has earned the right to be my last project for a while. i'm planing to put a simple crane of it and flat bed with removable sides. i'm doing this while i'm waiting on a few more parts for a friends truck.
so this is it looks like so far. http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j8...ps0227cfcd.jpg |
Re: so i got this truck.

Re: so i got this truck.
Looks like there is some room for a custom behind the cab tool box. Although your crane idea is much better!!

Re: so i got this truck.
so the start of the crane. i just don't know how to hook the fitting on. the hose that my hrc valve use is tiny, and the hole in the rams are big.??? any ideas?

Re: so i got this truck.
well after fighting with the truck crane for a week i made it a folding knuckle boom crane.
i'm waiting for the hydraulic cylinders to come it. http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j8...psde3c65a5.jpg http://i78.photobucket.com/albums/j8...psb9c37400.jpg |
Re: so i got this truck.

Re: so i got this truck.
wow looks great! big dream of mine to have a working knuckle boom!

Re: so i got this truck.
I like that setup, what are you going to load with it?
|
Re: so i got this truck.
The crane looks really good! The cylinders are very scale, and from the sound of it, they are also functional? Did you get it plumbed up yet?

Re: so i got this truck.
so got the crane done. it works pretty good but not that strong. i think its the pump, its out of a old dump trailer i had. so before i call it week i'll get a new pump. but the crane is done. kind of happy with the whole truck seeing its mostly used parts from around the house. youtube vid of me trying to use the crane. but its not as easy as i thought.
sorry about the background noise and comment on the vide good or bad later https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWuQ...hA2OxV-9svcvtQ |
