new to this channel cool videos. due you build trucks full time and or due you have a full time job you inspire me to call it and due something similiar it looks like you enjoy truck builds
The second time I had to rebuild, I did it all wrong and if I hadn't got hurt, I would still have all my toys. I bought the name brand tools and the boxes to go with. I worked a 100 hour week every week until I would just collapse. Starting over just ain't what they are selling as good for the person. If I had it to do over, there is a lot I'd change... that didn't come out right. More like if I could do it over again, then I wouldn't buy new new new till the cows come home. That gradall might get a paint job if I wound up with ten gallons of collars that I could trust that I would be found dead in I had a Liftall I think with twenty thousand pound lift on three stage lift cylinders and around six foot fooks but it came that way so I got used to it. You could put it in two or four wheel, in neutral to tow behind a truck. Nice little fuel sipping diesel and hydrostatic transmission. Go forward or reverse on fly which for me was nice. I mean common sense that you didn't go flying and change direction. Bank sold it pennies on dollar. Once you have your own property paid for, its downhill from there. Others who were my competitors were in front picking my bones... not a good feeling
pretty good lift capacity on the machine. I used the skytrax ones in the past, amazing how they work for difficult lifting jobs. nothing wrong with older equipment, beats payments any day.
i have a 5.9 cummins here with the allison adapter. the adapters are designated by sae size in the medium and heavy trucks. you can get that adapter from a truck salvage yard for pennies on the dollar compared to destroked .
i am an international fanatic.....a dt360 would be the only possibility due to weight, height and length....i have looked into it in depth. i made the comment about the cummins because i have it and the bell housing for an allison.
I've ran Cat C7's, Cummins 5.9/6.7, in Class 8 straight trucks and they never last as long as the DT's. But, from a money standpoint, yes, the Cummins makes sense. A DT360 wouldn't be too bad. Not enough of those around anymore so good luck tracking one down.
Great commentary on a spectacular machine, 2 thumbs up from here brother !!
thank you. it has been great for me...wish i had 2 of them!

JC any idea where I can get a used hub for one of these?
The Gradall is the perfect tool for what you do, more handy than forklift, better than a tractor with a loader!
and....4 wheel drive!
What year is the Gradall?
I've got a tyrex SS63 as the replace fork houses.
I think I got what you need for that motor swap. couldn't live with out a high lift on a tractor
wow, that was fast. looking forward to watching it
well, we dont want to disappoint!
Man , makes me wish I had one building my house and garage !!
they are handy machines!
Job my gradall will not power down how can I get it to turn off without the Killswitch
I can't wait until you build your new dump truck
it on the list of trucks to build....its a long list.
How do put in four wheel drive when the Togo is in four wheel

i have no interest in payments! i think the gradall is a 1997. i like that it is not a computer controlled.
Age doesn't make it less valuable as far as handiness!!!
it works well an it is as new as i can afford.
I hate that they don’t make gradall telehandlers anymore
That gradall telehandler has 3 different steering modes crab steer 4 wheel steer and 2 wheel steer
not all have that feature.
De Stroked Cummins connection has a 5.9 Cummins Allison 1000 adapters!

Just throw a DT in the C4500. Should match up to the Allison plus you get more power and the inframe overhaul ability

i would prefer a dt any day!
