I have also seen a pic of a 135 or a 211 (can't remember) with a HIAB (I think)

From a Canadian dealer advertising in a past issue of MVM (at least 5 years ago). When I called, there was no answer.
Looks like the tires may be singled out. Check the front wheel.

Ok I am now officially a tease...
the truck I saw was a multifuel 5ton wrecker/tractor that was not for sale. Imagine Ron's truck burnt, rusty, partly painted yellow in the woods. (the guy who owned it thought it was a deuce)
he also had a 50's era army bus

Depends on if you can find one somebody wants. Does it look like this? Most are for single wheel applications, the pic is of one from a dual application.
