Default Lifting cat on truck, any difference than V

I need to lift my cat (chris cat 30, 9000lbs) with crane on the truck.

Is there something different to care when liftimg cat with crane
on truck when compare to lifting V-bottom?


With cat are there bigger change boat to loose/drop when lifting?

Thanks.

Pretty much the same operation. I've had mine (32 Hydra cat) lifted but most times float it on and off. One strap directly under the engines and the other around where the wind screen meets the deck. that should put you in the balance ball park. An experienced travel lift operator can take it from there. Make sure your cut outs on the trailer bunks are located in the right spots.
