“ You  make  such  a  great  product. This  thing  runs  nonstop.  Any driver can jump  in  it  and  go.  It  runs  circles  around  my  big  wreckers. To  be  honest,  we have  it  on  a  260”  wheelbase  KW  and  I’ve  towed  loaded  tractor  trailers. You’re  not  going  to  get  that  out  of  an  NRC.  We’re  getting  a  truck  ready  for a  Zack  Z403  next. “                Jim Cady, 10 West Towing - Bakersfield, CA.
Tow everything a state-of-art tow truck can do at a fraction of the cost. Mount securely with no welding or drilling.  All mounting hardware removes completely during the quick drive-off leaving the truck’s fifth wheel available for full unobstructed use and the truck free of modifications. Because there are no limitations for height, width, wheelbase, or fifth wheel location, mounting on multiple trucks is easily achieved.
 
 "   Every  truck  that  is  built  at  the  Sterling  plant  we  move,  that's  an  average  of 600  trucks  a  month.   I  have  moved  as  many  as  1140  trucks  in  a  3  week  period. Ninety  five  percent  are  picked  up  by  the  front  axle,  most  of  which  are  set back axles,  a  lot  are  even  twin  steer  front  axle  with  3  rear  drive  axles.  Some  have extended  front  bumpers  or  frame  work  for  snow  plows,  so  you  have  to  reach  out  a long  way  and  raise  t hem  up  high  to  have  all  the  axles  off  the  ground.  My  Zacklift 303  has  never  failed  me, I  honestly  have  no  complaints  what  so  ever,  I  just  love  everything  about  it,  the  tilt  is  wonderful  and  it  is  so  user  friendly  to  operate,  I  can't say  enough  good things  about  it.  I  will  have  owned  this  unit  2  years  in  Dec  of  2006  and  in  18 months  have  moved  11,000  trucks,  Thanks  Karl  for  a  wonderful piece  of equipment.

“ I tow between 30 and 50 trucks per week. Tractors, trailers, buses and motor homes. I’ve had NRC and KKK 5th wheel units and my Z303 FIFTHWHEELER from Zacklift is by far the best unit. The long reach is great. I got more attachments standard than with the others, too. The 12” reach extensions are great on Detroit oil pans. No more double picking.“            Larry Loomis, Loomis Towing - Plamo, TX

 

 

 

 

Tried and tested in the toughest markets from U.S. Air Force operations in the Middle East, to city governments for garbage packers, Zacklift has been chosen as the toughest, most valuable towing tool available. Zacklift is the name chosen by America’s truck manufacturers, including Freightliner, Sterling and Navistar.

 
 The FIFTHWHEELER is available in every rating and reach offered by Zacklift.  The Zacklift utilized in the FIFTHWHEELER application is a standard, proven Zacklift underlift. When equipment needs change, the Zacklift can later be mounted on any wrecker or bare chassis.

 
"  We purchased a Zacklift FIFTHWHEELER this summer. After some customized rigging and fabrication I believe we have found the "Cadillac" of fleet-affordable transport wreckers! Thanks Karl, it was a pleasure doing business and feel free to use us as a reference.  "           Carl Tapp,  PAM Transport, Inc. - Toniitown, AR

 

 

 

 

“We have a Z303 FIFTHWHEELER on a 260” Pete and we do a lot of long distance towing. We never have to worry about scaling. We love the wheel lift and the scoop-n-go forks. Now we’re ready to buy a Z403. ”                                      Jim Jordon Jordon Automotive - Lusk, WY
