Recovry4x4 is swapping a truck bed with Speddmon.

 

[bchauvette]

I'm bringing;
1) Fast Orange hand soap
2) Rags
3) 3K generator
4) Electric & air 1/2" impact wrench w/sockets
5) air hose
6) extension cord

 

[Recovry4x4]

I will have normal hand tools and a complement of Milwaukee M12 and M18 cordless tools. I have a deuce clutch alignment tool for the endine swap. As far as the bed swap goes, I think Tom and I have everything for that. I also have a decent 12V compressor on board.

I guess I shouldn't forget the motor then....lol

Why yes!! I believe having the engine there would lean heavily toward a successful mission!!

See it's the little things like that , that will help

What bed swap are we doing, I want to make sure I have the needed rigging.

 

[Jeepsinker]

I'm bringing a chair. I'll supervise.

 

[73m819]

It would be nice to have someone narrate what is being done so others can learn

Robert there's also a complete tire swap.
I think a wrecker picking trucks up would be better than jacks if possible.

And I am bringing the engine oil for Andy's motor.

 

[Jeepsinker]

I don't mind narrating.

The wreckers are up to the guys that own them if all agree , I'll be there and turn wrenches with all , but has to be safe and everyone out of the way , but very doable .

And jeep sinker , you wouldn't last 5 minutes without grabbing a wrench , good try though so I'll see you under Andy's truck soon . Lol

And if you could I'll bring some 6x6 and if you can as well as nobody needs to be near a trucks ass or front end by cable alone , a little blocking and I say let's go for it

Andy C is bringing coolant.

 

[Recovry4x4]

Ron, we are swapping beds between a contact maintenance truck and a cucv pickup. The contact bodies are peculiar to lift. Sped is bring 2 sling straps of sufficient length. Other than that, normal rigging stuff that we should have.

 

[amgeneral72]

Im bringing the M1031 Contact Maintenance truck with torches and welder as well as other hand tools.

I assume SSGR14 stands for Steel Soldier Georgia Rally 2014?

This whole thread is like a big loop, and I'm on the outside looking in...

You are correct Jeremy. I changed the title so that it is consistent with the rest of the titles for the SSGR.

Ron,

Nothing really special for rigging. I pulled one off one of 2002ford's truck a few weeks ago. We just used 27 foot ratchet straps and my backhoe.
