Pretty impressive crane! But it is actually much easier to flip a M
151! It can be done with just a six pack of beer.

Most guys just fell into a turn too fast...that'll flip one quick.

Isn't upside down on a forklift the way some GL employees load stuff?
BTW: that's going to be a sweet ride when it's done. Good work!

That's why it needed flipping to begin with! It was delivered that way. LOL

Very resourceful! Most don't have the equipment that is available to you, however. We just flip it with a bunch of drunk friends picking up on one side.

The guy that owns the shop is a friend ,he's not a Veteran .He is a big help in restoring my trucks. He helps anytime I need it. This will be the 4th truck, I have a M-715 that will be next . Wife said that it. I thought some of you might get a kick of the pictures

Whenever I dream of a personal shop, it shows up in my mind exactly like that building, including the overhead crane! good job on the jeep, and it's nice to have friends with the hook up. lol

I've got access to a 25ton Pony bridge hoist and trolly. The main hoist on the unit is I believe 75 tons. It's at a local heavy duty turbine and vessel machine shop. Great to know if I ever need to flit a Sherman or Pershing... Nice jeep and shop. Wish I had that sitting on the back 40.
