41chevy Posted October 4, 2015 Share Posted October 4, 2015 The one I missed went for $3000. New they were about 9 grand for the basic 12 volt, 30 ton unit with no accessories.. Choice of 12 volt electric or Briggs and Straton gas. Walker Wreckers is now part of Protote.

Vladislav Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Very good thing to have for sure.How are they easy to fit/remove?I saw such stuff offered new overhere, about 20 grand.But was told they're good only to hook a truck by its rear end, not front.Any suggestions why and is there any sence in it?

Timmyb Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 I know if your lifting the front of a truck to pull it, you have to remove the drive shaft... So maybe they meant it's easier to hook up to the rear? And maybe its slightly lighter to lift the rear end? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vladislav Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Good point on a drive shaft Timmy.But the folks I was told from meant more about the load capacity. Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex g Posted October 10, 2015 Author Share Posted October 10, 2015 I've hooked one by front end today because driveshaft was pulled and brakes were caged it doesn't seem to make a difference in ride wether hooking front or rearSent from my SM-G386W using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
