    Hey guys , I used to operate one of those. It’s a 20 ton rough terrain crane. I ran it in Germany in 1969. Had a great driving it on the Autobahn. There is a master clutch on the operators right side near the floor that disconnects the crane from the engine so when you start it nothing is engaged. If you have any questions let me know and I’ll try to remember how everything works for ya.

      I knew it was old. they have a commercial crane painted green when I was in the engineer companies, I was in Germany in the 1980's. It did not take much to get them stuck.

    When I was in the Army Reserve (1983 - 1993), the Engineer Battalion (CBT), I was with had one of those parked in the motor pool.
    There was only one soldier in the whole battalion (a SFC), who was authorized to do anything other than look (from a distance), at, or photograph it. Both cabs had a retrofit that placed locking mechanisms on the doors, and the windows were all in place.

    I recognize that crane. I worked for a company back in the 90's that thought buying the old army crane was money well spent. LMAO! That is a mid to late 60's American Hoist & Derrick, 20 ton crane. I think it is model 2380 or 3285. I remember it has a V8 265 Cummins on the main power unit and a JN6I 6 cylinder for the crane. It can be quite noisy to operate. It's all mechanical and was very touchy. I was about the only person that would operate it. After I quite working there. The only time is was used, was for crushing 55 gal steel drums with the blade on the front. The master cylinders that operate the levers, were always a problem. If the fluid bypassed the cups, you could drop a load real easy.

    Thank you for saving her. We had those to load dummy cargo on are FS ( sister ship) of US Army Supply ship from WW-2
    Mr. Roberts) Film fame. We had Stevidor come from a near by Guard unit to practice with the double boom on the FS. They set these cranes on dock to load pallets of dummy cargo on board. I remember watching the operator always checking his swing break in the crane cab. Good times back in the very late 1970s. The blade on front of crane, they used to smooth out area for crane set up. Very heavy duty truxk cranes.

    Wondering what your thoughts on WD-40 are. Care to share? I mean, they say there’s 1000 uses for it. Just how many have you tried?
    Also, what’s the craziest thing you ever used it for? Mine was getting rid of a yellow jacket nest trying to happen in the outside wall of my basement (cinder blocks) by way of of the water spigot at the front of my house. Little bastahds were immune to everything else and I’m allergic. Out of pure desperation I sprayed half a can into the hole they made and watched for 3 days with no visible activity before sealing it up with insulation foam.Did the trick when all the hardware store recommended failed! Haven’t had a problem there since!

    On those older cable rigs they didn't have a power down on the hook line. You just slipped the foot brake. Until you got to a heavy load....then the foot brake was too sudden! Trick#1: Kick the master clutch out, pull the lever into load up, then slip the foot brake. The draw works runs in reverse acting like a governor. Trick #2: On REALLY heavy loads, shut the motor off, leave the master clutch engaged, pull the lever into up and slip the foot brake. The motor compression will act as a further brake. Trick#3: I used to run a 3 part line with the block, that slows it down so It is easier to boom down and winch up to hold the load even. (Old crane operator)

    I think Dave and his gang should swing over to Skinwalker Ranch which isn't too far from Salt Lake City and collaborate with those guys and get to the bottom of what lies inside/underneath the Mesa. The Skinwalker Ranch team has been drilling into from the side and drilling down from the top and they know something is about 40 feet down from the top and a couple hundred feet in from the side but lack the expertise to excavate it. Heavy D has the knowledge, expertise, and probably access to the proper equipment for just such an endeavor. If there is an alien spacecraft or "base" of some kind buried under the Mesa, a collaboration could be a "win win" for these two awesome teams. Would any of you guys like to see that?
