These keep coming into my sights . . . the only thread on here was a while back - with limited response.
For the money, and the features, and the weight - they seem like a good deal. Hot dipped Galv steel - nada rust.
48 by 102 combo, dual sliding axle, chain ties, sliding winches, air dump rear valve, under 10,000 lbs, and less than $30,000 - I think I saw the fixed spreads for about $25k.
Anybody have one/ know of anybody with one/ have any thoughts or comments?

galvanized doesent mean no rust, one crack in the galvanizing and it will start rusting. its still steel underneath. just sayin.
blairandgretchen Thanks this. -
What's their dealer network like? How are they assembled (riveted, welded, bolted) ? What kind of weight can it take in concentration?
blairandgretchen Thanks this. -
I'm looking at them too. Ruthless, the one I looked at I think everything except the frame was bolted on. And if I recall it said 54k in 4ft. I think.
blairandgretchen Thanks this. -
From their site, I didn't dig around to much to see if there was anything with a higher weight capacity. One thing that would concern me is getting warranty work done outside of their Indiana facility.
