CRSCRS Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Hello all, while looking on youtube I found some video of a truck being winched out by vehicle that looks like it has had a Martian recovery back end affixed, any info welcomed. Cheers Chris. I hope I've got the video thing right !:nut: <iframe title="YouTube video player" width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/TxYib-nOVKU" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scammellmark Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 yes it it is either from a martian or mk3 militant, more likely martian as the 8cyl petrol was not very popular, looks well and would be cheaper than the scammell eka, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacr2man Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Went to a lot of trouble to fit that , pity he hasnt a clue about how to recover vehicles :embarrassed: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosrec Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 (edited) definitly martian gear. Noticed a couple of pionts about vidieo wrecker has rear spade down buts its not being worked hence vehicle is relying on brakes to hold it therefore vehicle being pulled must have been MT . Also by noise from engine and speed of winch it has not had original Martian hydraulic pump fitted. Original martian pump worked at 42 gallons a minute modern ones 15 gallons Hence speed of winch. If Mt doubt that snatch block was needed Edited April 14, 2011 by cosrec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
