PW Wrecker Photo's Wanted

Posted by George (in Houston) on Monday, July 26, 2004 at 8:46AM :

I'm adding a wrecker boom to my 46 WDX and would appreciate any pictures showing the rigging on wreckers, or any info on frame re-enforcements needed, positioning (how far past the rear cross member the end of the boom should project, etc.) and any other info some of you might have. The setup that I picked up if placed at the extreme front of the bed will place the boom tip about 8" past the rear cross member and spread the load over a 30" length of the frame rails starting at the front bed mounting frame tabs if I do nothing. I'm thinking of at least putting heavy angle iron between the truck frame (top and bottom) and the boom frame...

Thanks!
George
