it works fine however woulnd do it on tiptraier again rear axle of jeep and frotaxle of trailer get overstressed.

 

crane lifts 500kg at 6m (so pics up any log in reach

Isn't that some what hugely overloading a 1500 ?

 

Someone local has just had a pc2700 put on a twin axle ifor by web hydraulics in suffolk, haven't seen it close up but it looks a very nice setup from a distance.

Nice thing about stiff boom cranes is the weight saving you get with them, but for taking pallets off I needed a knuckleboom but at the cost of payload.

Or the RIKO fast tow trailer with a crane - it has an adjustable load bed so that the nose weight never exceeds legal max.

This is my ifor with a small hiab will lift a ton close in bit nose heavy but don't notice it on the ranger and just load the trailer bit further back. Very useful wish I had done it years ago.

Whilst fitting but shows it folded up

[WillTimberlake]

Looks really smart. Good work there.

You could reduce the nose weight by mounting the power pack behind the rear wheel. I thought about doing this years ago but which ever way you work it on a decent trailer you are left with 1000kg payload. We cut it small and get 2500kg on a TT105 tipper.

I looked into these when I was considering what to go for but the rating on the palfinger site was as below, hence why I said what I did, to get the lifting capacity I need I would have had to go for the pc3800 which is a pretty pricey piece of kit.

Palfingers are really nicely built cranes though and that looks a nice setup.
