I kept wondering what the heck an Anderson Plug was.
Turns out the AAA tow trucks and an awful lot of regular commercial wreckers use them. The battery pack in most lift trucks use the same as well. They are a lot like a NATO plug where even in the dark you can see how to connect Positive...

Wonder if it could be built to match your truck - in metal.
Might be too heavy, but a set of Bows and sheet aluminum is an idea.
I have seen pictures of "hard top" trailers and cargo trucks...

The collective skills in this organization is really amazing.
Good part is - at least the way it is now will make it useful.
Might look and see what the GPM is on the pump.
If it just moves really slow that could be an issue too.
A really big DP100 tractor that I used to work on had a...

So, you machined the bolt.
Made the lip for the O-Ring, then the bolt fits inside the used cap to seal it all up?
I have seen plugs that are generally the same diameter as the plug (almost).
Honestly though - that aughta work if the bolt is deep enough into that cap nut.
Nothing more...

A little rubbing compound...
Those scratches will buff right out!
Seems like somebody was looking to buy the back "top" for one of these trucks just about a week ago.
I guess the real question is was the owner having a good time all the way up to just a few minutes before this happened?
.
So, most folks don't reply to their own post - but this thread went dark in September of last year. Might have been because the guy who was asking questions was me. So, I have the answers to how I managed to get my muffler installed. Read on...
The top pipe was pretty well "shot". The...

That is pretty darn neat.
Have to make sure somebody doesn't get "hung by the fingers until dead" but it sure is a cool way to have a nice way to hold a drink!
.
Semi-educated thought:
This self-loading trailer... It sits outside in the weather?
Is there any chance that a good round of penetrating oil might free up the "action" where parts move?
The only reason I suggest penetrating oil is that my M1089 has a crane on the back (middle actually)...

That linked thread was a fun thread to read.
Especially the part about being sure to add the weight of the air!

Sometimes the search here isn't as wonderful as it could be, but
I tried "deuce wheel weight" (no quotes) and got a bunch of stuff but not the linked...

With you 100% on the heat. It has been miserable here. Hot and really muggy. Had no rain for about 3 weeks - then for the last three days rain for a few hours - and it gets even more sticky and miserable.
Really glad that you got your truck working. They really are useful. Just being...

Has anyone found Interrupt Switch for Washington DC?
Guess we would need several maybe?
Yeah, I know this has nothing to do with the problem (Couldn't help myself)
- but everytime I see that title -
The need to FIND the political interrupt switch gets more and more powerful.
.
Congratulations!!!
Oh happy day... Funny how things work. Or maybe don't work.
Glad to have your boom jacked up.
Now let's have fun. Lower that boom, zip-tie a flag to it and stick it back up in the air!
Stand back and admire (repeat as necessary for inspiration)
.
Happy I could help a little.
I had hoped to get back to you with a civilian number.
Looks like you already found that...
I would love to know what you find for a place to purchase.
Having a spare on the shelf here would be really nice.
.
Mine might be overridden possibly?
When I engage the PTO switch, my pump is turning and moving oil.
The switch at the crane won't allow the boom to move with that switch off (again, on my truck).
Your results may be different? :)
