M816 Maximum Lifting Height?

[Speedzilla]

Hey Guys,

I have a bit of a different question, I want to buy a flag to fly on my 816, and was wondering how high the hook is off the ground with the boom all the way out/up. Want to make sure the flag can't get to the ground. Couldn't find it in any of the TM's and I don't have access to it right now. Thanks!

I own a m816, i would put a flag pole on the end off of a receiver hitch bolted on the flag would be 18 foot plus you pole bottom end

I think it's right at 20 foot, what size you looking at a garrison?

There was a US and a POW flag hanging off the hook of a wrecker at the GA Rally (has been for years - thanks Ron) with no problems. They were fairly standard 3 x 5 foot flags. A 15 x 25 foot flag could be a problem.

Ron's been cheating. His wrecker has an extra 8' of stick over the M816.
