2011 Dodge 5500 w/ Low Loader Part 2

The Low Loader is built for the everyday problems a Tow Truck driver encounters. For example, when a Tow Truck operator has to drag a stubborn vehicle on the deck. We often see the operator shake the bed, back & forth. In efforts of getting the damaged vehicle off the deck. This destroys the bed pivot pins & bushings. The equipment is simply not built for that. The Low Loader has a dump angle of 40-45 degrees. Our equipment is built for those conditions & situations. Bed Pivot Pins will not receive abuse.There is no more need to shake the bed to get the car off. This makes the Operator faster & does not destroy his equipment.

Next.. the obvious, load angle of 3.5 degrees. The lowest in the industry today of any American Built Carrier. We have designed the Low Loader to be user friendly for maintenance as well. Winch Hoses, Bed Wear Pads, No Bed Locks, Easy Access Pylon/Oil Tank, Lifetime Warranty on Control Handles, Bed Pivot Pins & Craftsmanship. This is revolutionary to the end user. We feel we have addressed many issues that are currently in this industry & invite you to try our product. We give a 2 year warranty on the equipment & a Lifetime Warranty on Craftsmanship & Labor. Our goal is simply, build the ultimate Roll Back for the conditions operators face daily & make it Detroit Wrecker Tough!

$24,500.00 is an out the door price. Bring us a your Chassis w/ 160" of "Cab to Frame Cut Off" & we are in Business!

ran out of message space. Good job on the tray there, Looks well designed and thought out and most of all well built. Great video as I was always curuios how these trays worked. Have seen some Jap versiosn using chains instead of cables. Yours looks like a much neater system simular to a forklift mast. How far can the bed slide backwards at full cylinder extension ?

@hurenkamp Your absolutely right. Our system is the same as a Hi-Lo or Fork Lift. Tried & True.

There are other versions of the Low Loader across the world. Detroit Wrecker, offers the Heavy Duty version. Americans have the heaviest passenger vehicles compared to the rest of the world. So Towing Equipment must be made strong enough to handle its heavy loads. Thanks for commenting! We are building a unit as we speak for a customer in Australia. So stay tuned we are making a Low Loader for him

I guess the system is pretty good for specialty cars, but I wouldn't put a big truck on a tiny Dodge like that; I wouldn't use a Dodge as a tow truck, either, lol.

how much is this bed?

[PoliceWillProtect]

i have a question im looking for a wrecker or a tow truck, i want to buy the truck new, and im wondering what the best truck for a tow/wrecker and what would be the cheapest option

[fastXXXXXhemi]

you should put small wheels at the bottom so it doesnt scratch or dent the paint! on the bed i mean!

Hi Chris, Just wondering how much over hang past the centre of rear wheels are you allowed over there ? In Australia we are only allowed 60% of the wheelbase as overhang. I have a Isuzu frr Aus spec truck and the max over hang for that truck is 2910mm , wheelbase is 4850mm. That truck looks to have a long overhang and then you mentioned if you have a vehicle with a large overhang on the tray you just don't roll the tray all the way forward.
