Does anybody know where to get parts them? The truck body is made by GMC. The crane/boom part and bed is made Waterloo unloader. I cant find anything on this on the web. Truck is a brick and block truck.
I can build you a new remote for it. Hoses, all you need to do is go to a hose shop in your area and have them make some more.
The bank valve should have some levers and solenoids on it. As old as that thing is, you control valve will leak.
Send me some pictures of the Bank Valve and I can help you more. :thumbs:

If you have a Napa Auto parts store around you they usually make these hoses to the select length at the store.

That's where I take all of my Hydraulic hoses.

There's 2 levers in the back with hoses and a control box with switches on the side. I'll get pictures of both.

Mr Redneck,

Are these the pictures your looking for?

This first picture is control panel thats wired/mounted up on the drivers of the bed with a bunch of switches. Here's what the switches say above them. boom up, boom down, emergency stop, fork up, trolley out, and master on/off.

Thats a 6 function panel. You'll have 3 spool valves on the thing somewhere.
IF it has a manual level bank valve, you might see some solenoids mounted on top of it for the remote panel.
I can actually build you a new remote panel and harness. Hell, I can even build you a wireless remote system for it.
Either way, the solenoid wiring is pretty simple . You just have a positive and a negative wire going to each solenoid and the on off switches will basically be circuit breakers.

Since the truck has to be running for the boom to work. Is there away to bypass that to operate that boom off a aux. battery by any chance. Give me your prices for make it also. remote panel, harness, remote control box, and wireless remote system.

Looks fairly remote and like you have a lot of room.

If the truck has a PTO operated hydraulic pump, it'll have to be running either way you operate it.
Yoiu can put a auxiliary system such as a small engine powered pump on it.
Just adds more money.
Price to build a new panel would be too high. Just guessing , $300 bucks or so. Cant say for sure because its a special cable and everytime I buy anything copper, I pee my pants over the price.
