Kenworth Heavy Recovery Rotator
With a little push I decided to start this build today. It will be a twin steer tri drive 80 ton rotator with a Kenworth W9 cab. Here is a pic of the truck I am using as a reference but the cab will be different as well as the front axle spacing.
Thanks for looking. Travis

Re: Kenworth Heavy Recovery Rotator
Thanks for the complements they are appreciated. So far it is 35in and I am guessing it will be 37 when the front bumper and the stinger for the rear is added.

Re: Kenworth Heavy Recovery Rotator

No Will they were made by one of our members (ihbuilder) who is also a vendor here. Here is a link to his thread about the wheels.

Re: Kenworth Heavy Recovery Rotator
Incredible project! It's already looking good, but I know it will get better. What a monster. I hate to think of the money tied up in rims and tires alone, but it's labor of love, I guess, and a fun hobby.
