Hi guys,
I Found this picture while searching the web, what is it? Note square bumper and IR lights on fender etc etc?
It's the evil 5-ton from the machine world f the matrix. Sent back in time to lure unsuspecting collectors into its diabolical clutches. or tentacles..

Looks like a rig to put tension on concrete bridge sections during assembly, usually it's done with hydraulics.

That looks like a crane and cables on the front. The cables are most likely short for some sort of hook up. Think about lifting your truck. Put a cable on each shackle then on the crane and up, up and away.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think that emblem on the right side of the bumper (our left) is Brazillian....I think I've seen it on Brazillian vehicles in other pictures.....I think(?)
