The
State of the Art skid is built on a 1993 GMC/Volvo Semi Tractor. The
design is the brain child of two of our 65 plus members Frank Burkholder and Don
Dufner. The truck was constructed in the winter of 2003 with all
volunteer labor numbering 17.
The
truck is the weight transfer 26,000 lbs and the mechanism is controlled by a
sensor on the drive shaft connected to a computer in the cab. All controls
are initiated in the cab including the announcing of the events by remote
microphone.
We
can be ready for a hook every 2 minutes.
