thanks guys! hopefully get some pics of it in action soon, should get some winch outs with the snow we have been having, this should pull those pickups out of the ditches with ease.

When you post your pictures, right next to the button that says "click here to upload" or something, right next to it you'll see a box that you can click to "embed picture" when you click that box, mini pictures will show up. that way if you want to see the picture bigger, you just need to click the pic.

I think before you buy wheel covers, you should have someone come on aver and paint your floors.



That new rig is BADD AZZ !!!!

if you look close at my last pic, the floor of the wrecker bed is done in spray in bedliner, I spray alot of them in, the thought crossed my mind but the engine hoist is hard enough to push across the floor with a diesel on it, i cant imagine what it would be like with a coating like that on it besides, with all the jacks, welding and ironwork i dont think anything would hold up, then when it was marked up it would look worse[:'(]

Man, that is a sweet looking rig. and with a cummins

Was the cat motor beyond rebuildable, or did you jsut prefer the cummins. I am a cummins *****, but on the farm we never had anyproblems with cat motors either.

Those 3116 Cats were almost indestructable. We tried for 3 straight summers to kill one on a summer job I had. No mattter how we tried she kept on going.

You might want to invest in a good air ride seat for that thing unless you like peeing blood. Those topkicks and kodiaks ride like a brick.
