Ford F250 Crane and Tailgate Loader Build-off.

A local Safe Transporting company needed a special purpose vehicle to lift and load heavy security safes.

They wanted a hydraulic crane and a tailgate loader all in one.

We  sold them the crane and they supplied the tailgate loader.

Fabrication began with a super strong sub-frame that would handle the heavy loads lifted by the crane and the taxing loads lifted by the tailgate loader.


Completed project.

The lower extended tube is for the mounting of the outriggers.

This side accommodates the battery box and the extension for the outrigger.

We removed the tailgate loader from this truck to use on the F250.
