Dutchman Boom Brake BB750

This boom brake is 3 years old. It was rigged once and I couldn't find good attachment points so it has been hanging from the boom unused this whole time.
Show's some weathering effects but is in great condition.

$225 shipped to the lower 48.

Located in MT

Re: Dutchman Boom Brake BB750

FYI some while ago there was a recall by Dutchman on a run of their #750 Boom Brakes. You might want to check with the Company to insure yours was not one of them, of if so, whether they will still replace/repair it.

FWIW...

Thanks for your input Hylyte.

The recall was for the shackle after only one reported failure. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this design and the recall was probably only to save face. If you want a stronger shackle you can replace the one that is on it, but that would be a waste of money.
