Do you have a link to where on evil bay you bought it? That is a great looking boom, and would help to get my own wrecker project off the ground.

Your boom looks like it was well made and thought out before it was made. thanks for the pictures.

It took me a couple of days to run these guys down: http://www.ssdunlimited.com/# They are the maker of the wreckover booms. There are a couple of pictures of them in their Gallery, but the picture on their Products page don't show this version.

I bought one of this type from them, but without the linear actuator; as I was making my own screw drive for it. I also didn't buy their winch, as I found a KWS converted servo-winch had a lot more power on an rc crawler forum: http://www.rccrawler.com/forum/elect...2-k3-k3x2.html I bought his double-servo version, (he has a video link posted that shows it lifting a floor jack), which should be more than enough power to for any of our trucks. I found that the stock 12 inch frame length was too short for my build. So, I sold it to a friend, and had them make me another one with an 18 inch frame. I also had them change the angle & height of the brace for the stinger a little, and am very happy with it.

Call and talk to them about what you want - they were both friendly and willing to tweak their design a little to meet your specs. -Mike

That boom looks really nice! It's giving me ideas......and I don't need another truck build in my head right now. To many unfinished projects already!
