1999 Volvo WG

1999 Volvo WG 6x4 Tandem-Axle Flatbed – National N100 31-38 Knuckle Boom Crane Heavy-Duty Crane Truck – 13,750-Lb Capacity – 31-Ft Reach – Cat 3306 Diesel Looking for a serious heavy-duty crane truck without spending the money required for a newer truck? This 1999 Volvo WG Tandem-Axle Flatbed is a highly capable work truck equipped with a National N100 31-38 hydraulic knuckle-boom crane. This truck combines a proven Caterpillar 3306 diesel engine, heavy-duty 6x4 chassis, flatbed configuration, and a substantial hydraulic knuckle-boom crane into one versatile package. With a 13,750-lb rated crane capacity, approximately 31 feet of boom reach, hydraulic boom sections, stand-up controls, a boom winch, and dual outriggers, this truck is designed to handle material-handling jobs that would otherwise require additional equipment. The truck currently shows 97,788 miles and is equipped with a 9-speed manual transmission and air conditioning. The crane is mounted directly behind the cab, leaving the flatbed available for hauling materials, equipment, tools, attachments, or jobsite supplies. TRUCK SPECIFICATIONS Year: 1999 Make: Volvo Model: WG Configuration: Tandem-Axle / 6x4 Mileage: 97,788 miles Engine: Caterpillar 3306 Diesel Transmission: 9-Speed Manual Drive: 6x4 Body: Heavy-Duty Flatbed Air Conditioning: Yes Crane: National N100 31-38 Crane Capacity: 13,750 lbs.

WHY THIS TRUCK STANDS OUT 13,750-LB CRANE CAPACITY The National N100 crane provides a substantial 13,750-lb rated capacity, making this much more than a basic flatbed truck with a small auxiliary crane. It can be an excellent solution for businesses that routinely need to load, unload, place, or transport heavy materials without having to bring a separate forklift or mobile crane to every job. 31-FOOT BOOM REACH With approximately 31 feet of boom reach, the crane can provide considerable working distance from the truck. That makes it particularly useful when materials need to be placed: Behind the truck Beside the truck Over obstacles Into difficult-to-access areas Onto elevated work areas At construction sites Around utility and infrastructure projects HYDRAULIC KNUCKLE-BOOM DESIGN The articulated knuckle-boom configuration gives the operator considerable flexibility when positioning loads. Unlike a basic straight-boom crane, the articulated design can be particularly advantageous when working in confined areas or when placing materials close to the truck. BOOM WINCH The integrated boom winch further expands the truck's capabilities for handling and positioning materials and equipment. DUAL OUTRIGGERS The truck is equipped with two outriggers, providing additional stability when operating the crane and handling substantial loads. HEAVY-DUTY VOLVO WG CHASSIS Underneath the crane is a Volvo WG tandem-axle 6x4 chassis, giving the truck the substantial chassis configuration expected for serious commercial and industrial applications. Power comes from the Caterpillar 3306 diesel, a well-known heavy-duty engine platform that has been used extensively in commercial trucks and industrial equipment. FLATBED VERSATILITY The flatbed configuration is another major advantage. Instead of dedicating the entire truck to crane operation, the flatbed can be used to carry the materials being loaded or unloaded by the crane. That makes this a true load-and-go work truck. IDEAL FOR CONTRACTORS, MATERIAL HANDLERS & INDUSTRIAL OPERATIONS This truck could be an excellent fit for businesses that need one vehicle capable of both transporti
