Ironman Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I have a Power Take Off on my 57 B61I'm eventually gonna put a fifth wheel on it with the single drive axle.Can you guys think on any good ideas for a use for the PTO on my truck??or should I just yank it and sell it?

hatcity Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 (edited) I guess it depends on what your gonna haul with it. If you end up with a hydraulic low boy, you'll be wanting it back.BTW- see lots of Canadien residents come down to Florida for the winter. Some cars have "je me souvien" (sp) on the tag. Does that mean "Bring me souveniers" j/k Edited November 17, 2009 by hatcity Quote Success is only a stones throw away.................................................................for a Palestinian Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/11446-pto-on-a-single-drive-wfifth-wheel/#findComment-43410 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajt3138 Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 I have a Power Take Off on my 57 B61I'm eventually gonna put a fifth wheel on it with the single drive axle.Can you guys think on any good ideas for a use for the PTO on my truck??or should I just yank it and sell it?i decdided to only use my b61t for parades and exhibition and such when i get er done. so i took my pto off from the working days. the only trailer i could see behind me now might be a little flat trailer or something. basically, it depends on your own intentions.

That would be cool to have a hydraulic LowBoy sum day.I'm primarily going to use it for a car hauler.Well it doesn't cost anything to have it or keep it. but it would to replace it.So I think I'll just hang onto it.You never know. je me souvien is Quebec's Motto.

It means "I Remeber" Depending on the car hauler trailer, if it has any hydraulics on it (ramps, etc...), the PTO can run it. Heck, my Mack has 2 PTO's on it...but then again it's a lot newer and still a working truck. Quote When approaching a 4-way stop, the vehicle with the biggest tires has the right of way!
