I also posted this in the questions section but thought it would be better here, thanks I was out tonight and noticed the locking pins on my pivot points for the wheel scoops were not engaged down in the wheel grid after I lifted the vehicle. It seems like there should be shims on the top side of the pivot pin to take up the play so the locking pins will engage. Everything was tight, the scoops stayed in place and it traveled well with no issues. I don't see the reason for the pins if they don't engage. The Vulcan I used to have had pins that dropped in once you installed the scoops. I looked at the parts breakdown for the wheel grid and it doesn't show s…

Does anyone know a source for decently priced Mpl40 or Mpl straps? They are a good 15.00 more or so compared to a standard strap on zips and truck n tow and Ectts website. Just curious why the price difference and if anyone has a reasonably priced source.

We have two MPL40 wreckers that we had the factory trailer ball mounts for. Last week I got to a trailer impound for the police and found it was a pintle hitch. I had to call out one of our flatbeds with a pintle to tow it. Today we bought the 2” receiver and had them welded on. They are getting sand blasted and powder coated next. I also got a receiver for a pintle and a tri ball so we can tow anything now. Something else we did long ago was have our local trailer shop make up a plug in wiring harness. It plugs into the 4 pin round on be truck and on the other end has the large trailer plug then they have us all the adapters so we can just plug our lights rig…

Just purchased an MPL 35 and I'm looking for somewhere to purchase where pads for the wheel lift. Everytime I look for wear pads I see just one and I believe that the wear pads are not all the same and even if they are I don't know how many I need. Does anybody have this information? Has anybody changed their own wear pads?

Hi, I just picked up a Jerr Dan with an HPL60 wheel lift and it has the T37 wheel grids. The Cam locks are broken on it. The two vertical appear to be screw in and changeable. The horizontal ones look like the outside is part of the casting and the center pin is missing on both sides. Do they make a repair kit? I cant seem to find it. Thanks in advance

I am very happy with our Jerrdan units. We have 2 MPL40s and 3 Jerrdan flatbeds. They all work well for us and we are happy with Alan and Nussbaum Service. We also have a local shop that does all of our repair and they are great too. These greaseless pin systems have been terrible. Any time a pin needs removed it is a nightmare and turns into a huge labor job. When we used to run Vulcan they were all grease-able and we take care of lubing things so pins would always come right out. Our current issue is on a ten year old MPL40. We are getting some scoring on our boom lift cylinders. Something inside is coming apart and it’s going to need new cylinders. You c…

Has anyone had any issues with the pivot valves/fittings for the auto grids that mount at very bottom when wheel lift is in the transport position? We have a 17 Ram 5500 with an MPL40 that has had nothing but problems with these valve/fittings. Is there anything we can do to keep them from leaking all the time? They loosen up but leak even if they are tight. We have replaced them both multiple times. Any insight would be appreciated Thank you

OK, these are a couple of the Jerr-Dan Caps I have picked up over the passed few years. Sorry, I often wear these and I do not have any to give away. After the First of the Year I'll see if Jerr-Dan may have a few set back.
