The Brigadier General
This isn't an alernate project but I suposeit counts as a tinkering. It is the rig I run everyday. 79 Brigadier with a cardwell single double derrick on top of it, weighs 69,000lbs. A really good rig, dont see many derricks on a truck setup like this, most are on crane carriers. Will have to get some pics when shes rigged down too.

Re: The Brigadier General
Yes thats whats under the hood, and thanks dammitmitchell it is even dirty in these pics we try to keep it clean, job is dirty enogh and things are just easier and safer when your rig is clean, makes you feel better about your work as well. Its a good rig and the blocks can pull up to 120,000 pounds if need be, granted the highest I have seen it in three years is 90,000. Gotta be glad its a GMC!
