Got a wild hair to build a spotter or transfer truck{which ever you'd call it} but can't find any good multi views with specs or enough pics...anybody know of any good resources or happen to have specs? I remember seeing somewhere but now can't remember where{gotta love CRS} I saw some info on an old flat front type, but as I said, I can't remember where I saw it{didn't want to build one then of course}. Can anyone help? Thanks-

Bob you could try one of these:

Here's one: MetroAirport Truck

Thanks dave, that used 94' capacity is nice, but I'm actually looking for older{70's/80's}...those are more boxy{believe it or not}.

Here's one I found thru todays searches...yardtruck.net...they have a nice downloadable brochure of the lift 5th wheel assy, for anyone else who gets the bug to build one. Still newer stuff, but this site has nice multi view brochures.
I'll keep checking ebay motors truck literature and brochures for decent pics....eventually I'll have to actually go buy one of them someday.

Bob,
Not sure if this is still on your "to do list", so aside from the bit's I Emailed yonks ago - I just stumbled onto this little gem
http://www.kalmarind-northamerica.com/show.php?id=2571
download the Maintenance Manual (has Plan, Profile L&R views and fore and aft drawings).
HTH.

Roger.

..and it's a big list too...but thank you..great reading!!!

Damn, Sorry I missed this one Bob. I'll see if I can find something for you out here on the road.
There are some East Coast areas that still use the "old school" yard trucks, but there getting hard to find these days.
