WMSTR's bucket truck has been spending the winter in my shop for some needed TLC. I started working on the unit around Christmas and there have been several work evenings of Justin and I working on the truck also. Yesterday some Rollag friends came out for a work day to work on some reassembly and more maintenance items.
The main reason the truck came home was to get a new clutch and transmission work and to diagnose some hydraulic gremlins. The clutch and transmission are back in the truck and drive line rehung with sturdier brackets. The truck also got a full fluid change, new brake pads, rotor and a caliper. Backup camera installed as well as strobes and back up alarm.
This truck is also getting some electronic engine controls including 2 speed idle for faster pump operation and remote start stop from the bucket. The truck is also equipped with a 12v emergency pump that will operate the boom in case of engine failure. This has been hooked up and fuctions now.
Thanks Justin Malland , Jerry Christiansen , Merle Myers , Duane Hovelsrud , Jake Hovelsrud Tom Hall, Mark Kerkvuet for coming out and working on the truck and Andrew Nelson for lining up many of the parts and help with the welding work to come patching up the boxes.
