Do any of you guys have photos of your 4100 ringer with the extension kit on? Any thoughts on the extension kit itself? At $190, almost might as well just buy a second crane?

Get the ext. Kit. It turns this crane into a big model. It's worth every penny. I can't get all the boom in mine cause my ceilings aren't tall enough!

Thanks Cranedude! That's much bigger than I anticipated it being, I guess I can see why it costs so much. About how tall is it all said and done? Thanks, Dan Daily Diesel Dose.com| All Ready Mix.com | Plowsite DOT Thread | If your only contribution is complaining, please don't contribute!

Mine will (barely) fit under an 8' ceiling, but I don't have the fixed jib attached. Sensational model and MUCH better looking with the extension kit - even if you don't max the main boom out.

yeah it is an excellent model with the kit, i have mine most of the time setup with just a 20ft, and 2 40ft sections, love how it looks like that, heavy lift setup!

I have one 20ft. and three 40 ft. extensions on mine. Brandon and Justin are correct; it's a pricey kit but, well worth the money. Once you put up the back mast and a few extensions, you'll never go back.TM

Thanks again for all the info and photos. I didn't even imagine that these guys could go that high, looks like my 16000 and 1280 might have some competition! Daily Diesel Dose.com| All Ready Mix.com | Plowsite DOT Thread | If your only contribution is complaining, please don't contribute!
