10Ton Demolition/Part Out

[Dirt71]

Started the demo on the 10 ton with the hurt motor this weekend. This is the truck that I tried to crank and sucked a bunch of oxidized aluminum down into one of the cylinders. I'm going to utilized the frame where the engine sits and make a test stand out of it. Theres alot of good parts to keep off this truck but the axles and tranny are going to SECO as well as the axles and tranny from the other red 10 ton. Once I get the test stand built I will pull the heads and see what its going to take to fix it. This engine will go in the truck I bought back from the logger in Panama City and will be for sale.

Shame to part it out.

Have you ever considered "bobbing" a 10 ton?

That winch just looks massive. What is the winch rating on them vs 5 ton rear winches on wreckers?

Yes the thought is very much alive in my head, but only in my head. All it takes is money, something Im short of right now. Thats why Im selling the axles and trannys to Roy at SECO.

They are the same 45,000#

If you remember, this was an inside joke with Dug and I for a while. Seems it wasn't real popular to say in chat.

In the second and third picture I thought there for a second I was looking at some GL pic's of them trying to move a truck.

I can use several parts off of it.
To start:

• Front bumper
• Spare tire davit
• Rear quarter fenders
• Battery box under passenger seat
• (5) wheels and tires

I'm sure I'll think of more....

And the rest of us can only dream of owning the one he's going to fix up and sell. Nothing wrong with BIG TRUCKS. Good luck with them.

There are three 10 tons within 5 miles of me....they all belong to the same guy.

Unfortunantly I couldn't afford them even at scrap prices.

And I don't need another project.

Got a little more demo done today. Dropped the front axle, pulled the engine and transmission and seperated the two. Next thing to do is cut up the frame for the test stand I'm going to make and then pull the heads and see what damage I did.

 

[timntrucks]

it would be super nice to have a 10 ton.. even if it didnt run. just sitting around to look at..............

 

[joeM62]

Does houdl I think that is his screen name still have his 10ton with the 816 wrecker bed?

 

[gunboy1656]

Be interesting to see the back half of the frame turned into a trailer.
