Basin Upfitting Builds NTEA Truck "Titan 38 - Severe Duty Mechanics Truck" for Auto Crane

The Most Comfortable Mechanics Truck in the World? 

In the world of heavy-duty mechanics trucks, the Titan 38 emerges as a game-changer, combining rugged durability with cutting-edge technology to meet the demands of today's toughest jobs. Developed by Basin Upfitting, the Titan 38 is built on the robust RAM 5500 Limited chassis and is packed with features designed to enhance performance, safety, and overall operator comfort.​

LiquidSpring Smart Suspension: A Smoother Ride

One of the standout features of the Titan 38 is the LiquidSpring Smart Suspension system. Unlike traditional suspensions, LiquidSpring uses a sophisticated system that adjusts in real-time to driving conditions. By monitoring factors such as speed, steering, and braking, it provides a smoother ride, reduces driver fatigue, and extends the lifespan of the vehicle by minimizing wear and tear.

Auto Crane Mechanics Body with HC-7x Crane: Built for Reliability

The Titan 38 is equipped with an Auto Crane mechanics body, featuring the HC-7x crane. Auto Crane has a longstanding reputation for producing reliable and efficient service cranes, engineered to withstand the rigors of daily use in demanding environments. The HC-7x crane enhances productivity and ensures safe operation, making it an invaluable asset for any mechanic working in the field. ​

Buckstop Single Wheel Conversion: Enhanced Off-Road Capability

To tackle challenging terrains, the Titan 38 incorporates Buckstop's Single Wheel Conversion Kit. This modification replaces the standard dual rear wheels with single wheels, improving traction and off-road performance without sacrificing load-carrying capacity. It's an ideal solution for those who need their mechanics truck to perform reliably, even off the beaten path. ​

Ramsey Patriot 16500 Winch: Power and Reliability

The Titan 38 is equipped with the Ramsey Patriot 16500 winch, a robust and reliable tool designed to handle the most demanding recovery and lifting tasks. With a rated line pull of 16,500 pounds (7,484 kg), this winch ensures that operators can confidently tackle heavy-duty challenges in the field.​

Key Features:

• Powerful Motor: The winch is powered by an efficient 5.5 HP 12V DC series wound electric reversible motor, providing increased pulling power for rigorous applications.​

• Three-Stage Planetary Gear System: Featuring a proven three-stage planetary gear design with a gear reduction ratio of 298:1, the Patriot 16500 delivers fast line speeds and reliable performance.​

• Durable Construction: Built with heavy-duty gears and a strong automatic load-holding brake, this winch is engineered for mission-critical performance, ensuring safety and durability during operation.​

• User-Friendly Design: The spring-loaded pull and rotate clutch allows for easy free spooling, and the weather-resistant solenoid assembly enhances reliability in various environmental conditions.​

• Standard Equipment: The Patriot 16500 comes standard with 90 feet (27.4 meters) of 7/16-inch (11 mm) 6 x 25 galvanized EIPS wire rope, equipped with a replaceable clevis hook with safety latch. It also includes a 12-foot pendant or an optional patented wireless remote, and 6-foot (1.83 meters) 2 gauge battery cables with connectors.​

  
  

Integrating the Ramsey Patriot 16500 winch into the Titan 38 enhances the truck's versatility and capability, providing operators with a reliable solution for heavy-duty recovery and lifting tasks.
