Crane on the left would have stopped it from going over entirely, if you did it right.

What if we put the crane in the center of a comp crawler chassis, pin weight to the end of it and use it to counterbalance accents, descents, and off camber sections of the course. And if it gets really crazy you can scope out the boom to move the weight even furthur away for even more leverage.
Could also double as a self righting devise.
Reported, this thread is about vises.

I would need 2 5000-23s one for the driver side vice and one for the passenger side. Got to be cross trained these days.

I have heard that some of those field mechanics like to go both ways these days. Anything to make a buck I guess

Mine has always been on the right under the crane... But really what difference does it make?

Pentrode said "Never in my life have I seen one on the left." So I simply posted a picture of one on the left. Then that fuckin farmer made a thread in my honor

what does movin dirt have to do with any of this?
Captain Call
No
To move dirt takes mechanics. Mechanics need service trucks. Real service trucks have the vice on the right. Keep up.

Wanna fuck around and find out? I have run them. But I've been running the show for so long now I don't think of myself as an operator...just their boss.

It was picked up with one of those 4 wheel ‘center boom extendable’ things. Like a fork truck but for menWhat if we put the crane in the center of a comp crawler chassis, pin weight to the end of it and use it to counterbalance accents, descents, andoff camber sections of the course. And if it gets really crazy you can scope out the boom to move the weight even furthur away for even more leverage.

If it’s only got four wheels it’s suitable for women and small men. Maybe children.
