Thanks for the heads-up! That's a good deal for a tool that only gets used a couple of times.

Thanks for letting us know!

If you are looking for more uses, this is quite effective at pulling old shrubs out of the ground...

One of y'all that has it, can you measure clearance from the hook to the hydraulic cylinder with the boom fully extended? Needs to be at least 5' to clear the body when it's installed. For when you have to do those catastrophic rebuilds or replacements....

It is 46 inches between the hydraulic lifter bolt to the hook bolt at the 1/2 Ton maximum length:

I am an 818 builder, so not sure if this applies to other FFR kits but likely it does, the HF 1 Ton crane reach is too small - 2 Ton is the way to go. Like anything from HF, double what you think you need!!!

Cheers
