That's a badass crane, never seen one fold up like that and I work on material cranes all day. Great content (throw a Load Hold Valve inline with the rotation cylinders/motor and it shouldn't turn freely on you)

[@leokelly359]

ok you had a HEMTT hauling a hot tub but have you ever seen a hemtt bed as a swimming pool? when I was in the desert during 1st gulf war 1991 (desert storm) we actually had a waterproof tarp spread over the bed of the hemtt and filled it with water now it wasn't perfect or deep or held water very long. but, it was very refreshing, funny and it broke up the boredom of sitting out in a big sand box for 3 months

[@billgauvey5321]

We had an old GP Medium we used for a liner in one of ours. Held water for a long time

[@shadymaint1]

HEMTT tip. DO NOT put the transmission in gear with the high idle on. Had my M984A1 wrecker jump about 8 feet forward and then then die. The exhaust elbow from the the manifold up to the turbo was split open like a gutted fish. Got it started and limped back to the motorpool. Had to wait a few days for parts to fix it. Old Detroit was a beast. Sounded like you were going 100 miles an hour when you were barely moving. Damn I miss my HEMTT.

[@Nittygrittyguy]

Oh yeah I drove mine in Korea the thing was so easy to drive I used 1 finger at times I Called it 10 ton beast or something like that? It's been awhile 2008 so ? So fun to drive and I took a PLS for a spin once that was nice! The steering wheel was like a car size! Lol still An awesome drive !

[@thebadgeofshame3994]

@@lucassvedlund3851 Steve explains on his youtube channel and in numerous interviews that he didn't enjoy the television show because he had limited control over the plot of each episode and was forced to half ass his builds because as he stated "It might look good enough for TV, but the ratrods would barely run and be falling apart." They rushed everything for the film producers and ultimately he wasn't happy with the outcome of the show. He's a proud artist so I don't blame him. Danny Koker has had the same run with his TV show Counting Cars. He does it for the money but he's not happy with giving up control of his shop and his image to the television producers.

[@coleanderson9298]

All you’d need to do to fix that crane from turning when you don’t want it to is instal a different control valve. Some come with a check ball so that when you push/pull the lever, you need to give it some ooomph and it’ll kindof lock in place. Until moved again and it’ll spring back. There’s toooons of different kinds of control valves to choose from with all kinds of different positions and what not though

Was at first duty station. Camp, Howze .Korea . When 28.900 miles without accident in Korea with the 985 HEMTT . They are a beast of strength and performance. Word of caution the hoist on the crane is run by a small 3/8" line. Do not break that line with your load it will drop emediately! Add an additional safety cage on it! Other than that keep your boom at a higher level . You risk bending the boom ! Seen it happen! So be careful and God bless you! Thank you for bringing back the memories with that vehicle!
