I operated 3 different 118's in the oilfield back from 1977 to 1988 ish. Outstanding machines, with proper maintenance. We moved crane so much, me and my rigger could, fully rigged with 70 ft. Boom and tracks out, rig it down and have it on lowboy in twenty minutes. About forty five to rig up. Miss real friction rigs. Have a fantastic day!
That’s always a challenge to get the right length off cable sticking out on the dead end of the cable on the drum . I felt your frustration I always feel good having a new cable ,

118 is my favorite. Just a fanatic, not an operater. Love to build scale models of crawler cranes. 118 I built many times over from the age of 12.

PULL UR CABLES INTO THE SOCKETS FIRST WITHOUT THE WEDGE, PUSH BACK OUT INSERT WEDGE, TAKES THE SPRING OUT OF THE CABLE
These fellas not working safe at all but good job anyway
Well, we haven't heard from y'all lately. Picked any thing significant up with 118?
