Bridge Truck boom power
The TM talks about hooking a 2nd truck to the front of the loading/unloading truck to hold the front on the ground during operations! So I would guess that the boom is strong enough to hoist a load of dirt in a body. How do you plan to handle the height and width issues?- m139h2otruck

Bridge Truck boom power
By the way, the truck was running in these photos (at idle) and had only just been started. I think the speedo is original, and only shows 5800 miles or so.- m139h2otruck

Bridge Truck boom power
Not trying to hy-jack this post, but I thought I would put up some pictures of our truck so others would know what we were talking about. The two biggest problems with the M812 is the width (over 11 feet) and how high the cargo/bed would be if you use the boom as it sits.- m139h2otruck

Bridge Truck boom power
There is a TM in the Tech Manuals for the M812 truck and bridge system that gives all the specs on the parts/pieces. I read it, but did not download. From memory, I think the winch is at least 10,000 pounds.- m139h2otruck
