ACH Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 I've been trying to find out some information about my Atlas crane and I've been looking at the ones fitted to Militants, but it's not that one. Then I came across this picture of the Atlas crane mounted on the back of a Militant and wondered if anybody knows the owner or the whereabouts of the vehicle and could find out what model the crane is for me please? or even some better photos for when I re-assemble it.

ArtistsRifles Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 That does not look - to me - to be a standard installation on a Militant. I know in later life some were fitted with such devices but to the best of my memory they were situated immediately behind the cab! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACH Posted October 2, 2009 Author Share Posted October 2, 2009 You're absolutely right, it's not the standard Atlas for a Militant as far as I know and the Atlas I was trying to identify was fitted on the rear of my Bedford RL, which is the same as the one fitted to this Militant. Once I know the model of the crane I will be able to obtain the specification sheet as I will be mounting it behind the cab, but I want to check the wet weight as I don't want to overload the front axle. Cheers for your input mate. I've always quite fancied a Militant but just can't justify it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
