Anyone with a crane in VA?

[sgtrisk]

Just wondering if there is anyone reasonably near Charlottesville VA who has a crane truck. I'd like to lift the van off my M109A3 so that I can clean up the chassis. Might as well do it right, if I'm going to do it!

I suppose I could rent a crane for a day, but that's not nearly as cool! Think of the great photo op with the two MVs working together!!

Cranetruck...but I think there is still bottom end issues with his knuckle boom truck.

That's correct Will, still a lot of maintenance to do on the deuce and no tags or insurance either for that matter. Just use it in the yard when the crane is needed....sorry Brad.

No problem, Bjorn. I figured you were a bit too far away for what I hope is a 30 minute task!

Anyone have any idea how much the van portion weighs (empty) on an M109?

Also, which manual(s) contain the piece-by-piece illustrations/lists of how a truck is put together? I've got the -10s and the -20s.
