What kind of rotator was this and how much was it lifting?
@9carcottrell2466 жыл бұрын
This was a demonstration it was not to see how much I can lift. I'm running a fiat Alice v16 tug boat engine with full inter axel wheel lock deployment and sand spreader. Twin stick with 2 speed auxiliary. I've picked fully loaded cement mixer rolled over weighting 102,845. This bus is a cake walk.

Hahahaha...Every truck/wrecker you "apparently own/drive", either in the US or Australia, is fitted with this engine. In fact, so are the trains you "apparently drive" as well. Give it a rest with the bullshit comments pmsl

Seria ótimo um desses no Brasil do jeito que nosso transito é assassino este guindaste nos ajudaria muito pena que não dispomos de tanta tecnologia.

Wow I don't think that cane/wrecker in big enough for me. I need one with 10 alxes inculding 2 up front 8 in back. Including a 90 ton cane.

that truck is upwards of 1M easy. with the outriggers and spades on the rear minimizes the chances of tipping.

It looks like it use to be a West facility bus (look at the W on the windshield).

You can buy a 75 Ton Rotator for under 1 million. Not much under but $750 thousand can get you what your looking at.

You not only need the license but also the Endorsement for Wrecker operations after passing the test let alone all of the training it requires

OK. So what if they come upon a bus rolled over on it`s side?
@jptrustno19 жыл бұрын
Well, with the 4 winches u can lift the rolled over bus and turn it upright in midair, then rotate around and set it on its wheels or on a lowboy trailer and haul it away. Ive done it a few times. Id pay to do it all over again. I get emotional when thinking about it and remembering the times when kids would want autographs with pictures.

overpriced compared to a Century 1150R rotator for less price with more better storage capacity

Did you Google that price 9 car? That's not even your rig. Only thing you drive is your vivid imagination

Sure looks impressive but the bus only weighs 29 t. Far below the limit of the crane.
@Joshua79C6 жыл бұрын
I was going to post a comment of the sort on weight and per construction materials, seen Ron Pratt lift a Blue Bird school bus and a car with his 50 ton 1150R from Century (Miller Industries), about the same amount of weight, but with more better storage options
