@maxjtj318 жыл бұрын
+Alaric Rudolph why would the parking brake not prevent it from rocking?
@Hakuo8 жыл бұрын
+maxjtj31 with enough force from the momentum of a car moving and stopping on the bed, the truck will still rock back and forth. It's a matter of how old it is, as wear and tear does happen. Rob said the truck was older, 12/13 I believe, if there hasn't been maintenance done, it could still rock. Albeit a bit different, but that's why truck drivers are supposed to chock their wheels when loading and unloading their trailer/ straight truck.
@RubiconJoey8 жыл бұрын
Nice, but it needs two things. 1. Some type of coating on the bed, it's already rusting. Paint, powder coating or preferably a spray on bed liner. 2. Winch. A winch is much easier to control than driving a car up the ramp (especially if it's wet) and allows you to load broke down vehicles. It will also eliminate a lot of the rocking everyone is b*tchin about.

You should consider adding a winch to the bed just in case you ever have to haul/move disabled or broken down cars. The money saved would pay for the winch 100's of times over. Just my .02 cents. I like the truck though. I had no idea the tolls were that high in NYC for multiple axles. Just the money saved there will pay for the truck and modifications!

For 9k is a good conversion. Was O.T.R. truck driver and the tolls per Axel can be expensive and add up quick! Personally I would install a Good remote controlled Warn winch, add a perforated section covering the rear window mounted to the "Headache Rack", what is on the bed now should stop the car, But not anything else! Say like a strap from smashing your head! As far as a parking brake is concerned, I would upgrade to a hydraulic brake lock system which would lock all the wheels while loading. Upgrade the running lights, always good to be seen,not just the minimum required. Proper D.O.T. signage, even a custom vinyl wrap that's reflective.

These are the standard across Europe. Normally modified into Ford Transits or other 3500kg vans. With the rig on a single axle 3.5ton van gets you a ~1600kg load weight which is enough for most cars here. You can safely load more but it is technically illegal due to the way our vehicle classes are set up (any more than a GVW of 3.5ton then its a commercial vehicle with more safety & tax requirements).
