I never wanted the jib after all. The 2 reasons where the price and don't have enough roof space to display it. So I decided to display it in full boom.

That looks great Brandon. I initially liked the heavy short boom but the longer main boom with the luffer has really grown on me. It really makes this particular crane. Looks awesome.

thanks shawn well i finally gave in and bought me a zaxis 870, starting to get the dirt disease  since im starting a new dio, i thought it would be a nice time to update my dirt collection. been wanting this model for some time now and finally came to terms and bought it. im also buying jasons attatchments for it as well.. this is #81 of 1000. WSI really set the bar high on this model, should be the new standard on all new dirt models now. this thing is just incredible, the only thing i cant get over is the narrow tracks, i think they should have been wider but thats just me hitachi 870

My 870 got loose after a few months. Would end up posing it in the morning and coming home to it drooping. But if you find the right positions it will maintain height. Still love the model though.
