    Ratchet? No time for that. Impact wrench and just vary the amount of ugga duggas depending on size of the bolt.

    one thing is quite strange here.
    this platform in blue is actually side tipper, it would be perfectly normal if there are pockets for side corners and hinges for sideboards. this way does not make much sense to me

    Did any of you watched movie the ice road?

    It is so wrong in terms of trucks, that action movie become a comedy to truck people.

    Could be a secondhand truck.(starting life as a tipper with a crane)

    OR
    They can change the platform to another (like a box or containerchassisframe) using those sidetipperlocks would make them quick release.
     
    Pamela1990, Oxbow and 98989 Thank this.
