Wrecker hoe gets 816 moved

[grounded]

Well finally got out today after last couple weeks of needing to get around and get someone his 816 to the yard so it can get ready and see what has been scored

818 finally has been fixed all repairs and tagged, insured. Thanks to gimpy for still using his towbar and tow lights We got it all done and not a issue. EVEN passed the DOT man himself on a offramp coming home

pics to come

Hey.There's my louvered panel that is missing on my 816.How did it get in your truck?

Nice score.Lotsa stuff included.Does she run yet?

Won't find out till next week. Batteries are DEAD lined. tried to slave it to the 818 and nothing. Will put all new batteries in it and see what happens. We was going to atempt a pull start but i was tired and didnt wanta put the driveshafts back in it yet Just got back from vacation and had to run to get this thing today. Will work on it next week after i get stuff straight and ready to go around here.

Picked it up and seen them was missing thinking crap. opened the Tool box and seen this. The best part of this truck is to be announced yet at a later date ,

pull start will only work if you open the screw on the IP.

correct guess i should of mentioned it before someone else just tried it

i rather just put new batteries in it and have at it. We will see how she all goes and runs next week.

Nice looking truck cracker!

 

[StrykerPez]

I thought the wreckers were supposed to pull other trucks... not the other way around

 

[citizensoldier]

nice score! Now is this one yours or the one that will end up in WA? I am confused and yes I confuse easily. Leave it hooked up and turn that 818 north I will get it running..

Hi,

Hey congrats on acquiring an M819! Thats great. I still haven't found a definitive production figure for the 819....

Nice 816 too! The front winch wire rope looks new. USAF wrecker?

 

[grounded]

LANE thats your blurry picture 816 that you missed out on and TODD landed . Hell of a truck for the price huh

NOW if can convince him that it looks better sitting here

Nice truck. I just got mine a week ago. I have a question for someone: what is the rope for? I have 2400 feet of new rope and don't even know what it is for.

The rope is for rigging. There is a PS magazine that lists all the accessorys for the wreckers.
