Looking for a new(er) HD T-800 (or equivalent Pete, etc), tri-axle, min 50k lb hooklift. Will consider C&C and do our own upfit. Needs big motor-ISX/MBE and ideally a 15 or 18 spd trans, locking rears, etc.

If anyone knows of any trucks like this please email me JohnBanks@JBanks.net

Will travel for the right deal.

Also looking for a brush hog to fit an ASV MD2810

Thanks

Been looking in Truck Paper, thanks. Most hooklifts are tandems, and the few that are triaxles have small motors/trans. Trying to find a "new" 07 pre-emmisions motor, don't want the emissions BS on a big truck. It's enough of a problem on my '08 CTD - but not for much longer ;)

Found a few C & Cs that will work, we can upfit, but was hoping to find something fitted up to put to work in the next week or so. Time is money.

Im guessing you need a hooklift because you already have some boxes for it?

we have a FL70 single axle hook now with a bunch of containers, and a tri-axle Pete roll-off with some boxes. For us, hooklift is the way to go for a few reasons. We're going to sell the Pete roll-off, and need a tri-axle hook. So yes, we'll also be buying some new boxes.
