Hi all
Purchased this crane off Ebay.
It's a modified Garage engine crane where the pedestal has been modified t bolt onto the swinging drawbar bracket. This keeps the base close to the Diff and with a top link to the top link on the diff makes for a rigid mounting. The hydraulics is a single acting Ram and the boom can extend.
Photo's here http://s1106.photobucket.com/user/oldtr ... t=3&page=1.
Very useful where a lift is required as when I wanted to move my other Dexta which had no steering at the time.
Regards
Jerry

Re: Dexta Crane
Yes, very elegant.
The bottom just sits there, can't drop off the drawbar because the top link won't let it twist sideways?

Re: Dexta Crane
The base of the crane has two large tabs which bolt into the box of the swinging drawbar - see pic 3444.
As it's close to the axle line it can lift quite a bit before the front lifts.

Sweet..........Jerry, I like it. I can think of many things where that would come in handy around my place.
