No thread just know he has one! Pretty sure any two button remote will work then just add a pair of electric solenoids to the hydraulic lines and bobs your Uncle!

According to which wrecker you have would make it easier to use by yourself but on 936 would be easier to go remotely activated like Profo has on his truck.
The TM even list the weights you can lift without outriggers so you do not always need them before lifting. Does he have to much in the air maybe I don't know how much that trailer weighs or what he is doing with it. This thread is about wrecker mods not lifting practices so let's get back on...
I like the way you think red but you don't have to weld anything to them to make them work just use two cables going up to the hook or whiffletree and two cables hanging down from the loop ends.

I have already cut off my bumperettes I think that I will still want to use dedicated mounts on the truck for the side pull but i can easily change the ball socket for shackle mounts and this gives me the front of the truck back on my A2 to use the spades for the front winch.

Yeah we have discussed a second boom winch but to do it right I think you would be in for some pretty significant modifications but definitely doable. I would probably use another stock type boom winch with different drum so it could be wound with more line and I would change the the stock drum...
Okay I think you missed my point. I wasn't really talking about the plow system, which I think would work better using the large, not med/heavy, boom supports/ HEAVY tow bar. You won't bend that and i don't see a need for 3 sets of heavy long legs.

Hey bud i have a idea, there is no reason to have two sets of almost identical length bars on the truck, the medium towbar and the boom travel legs, and the long boom supports and a large tow bar and the land anchors/scotchs. Why can't we make one set of short legs and one set of long legs with...
Yes I know what a M looks like but wanted to emphasize the spread.
Yeah me and you have a thread going about the land anchors somewhere.
I never said I would dig it by hand, we have a small backhoe that would be drug in to place if i had to try my anchor. For non wrecker winching I would just...
You guys are funny, NOT!
My idea is labor intensive but should work. Make a upside-down W using the tow bar and the boom supports and feet as the outside legs of the W dig a trench for all of it to go into. The feet of the boom supports should be connected and angled so they will dig in and...
I have sunk a wrecker 936A1 to the bumper going downhill, worst possible scenario and yeah it pulled every pinetree we hooked to, by the way why use tree savers when you are just sucking the whole thing out of the ground? Finally got all but 5 wraps off rear drum and hooked to massive oak...
It has some issues if I remember right but I am going to make a long wheelbase wrecker. Using a 927 frame to start with so effectively stretching the front part of the frame. But I have some wild ideas.
