strictlyxjs Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Hey guys i was wondering if you guys have these around you too. Alot of people ive talked to say they have never heard of it...Its a jeep with a crane built in it used for installing curbing in parking lots and roads. There are TONS of them around here. It seems every construction company around here had a unit identical to this one. We get all the local construction companies bringing them in for service or engine replacements at our shop. They are usually clapped out and abused but i guess they work real good for the intended purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gogmorgo Posted August 31, 2020 Share Posted August 31, 2020 Any time I’ve had to move curbs I’ve either done a team lift, or moved them around with forks on a skid steer. But then I haven’t worked legit construction, so who knows what they would use for that. We use a loader for barriers on the highway. I have seen similar concept Jeep cranes, though. Just not specifically for moving curbs around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the ones i worked on the other night that weight box held tools like a huge level, shovels and pry bars. It was a neat little setup.
