    if you want the best ones - call Cozad in Stockton CA

    they have been making them for a long time. They are also very expensive- maybe $2-3k

    I think I may go stroll around the junkyards in the West Valley first and see if there's anything I could find

    They have some good DVD's at this Peetro. The OM said I could get a few.

    How comes the only place they have decent movies on DVD is at truck stops?

    Tell him a friend who helped him with some info on a forklift suggested you call.
    That he claimed to do the difficult fabrications now, but the impossible might take a little longer...

    What he actually quoted to me:
    I own an operate a custom metal fab shop with full machining so what’s reasonable for me is a little more than what might be reasonable for others. And I have a proclivity for old machines so I’d like to see this forklift running and in service for another 52 years if possible.

    @D.Tibbitt ....

    Exactly right. Good ramps pay for themselves by putting less stress on your tractor picking up something heavy. That's a fine looking rig, it deserves something better than a cobbled up bunch of iron that you'll hate every time you use it.
