For The Operator Who Demands
High Performance

     

Designed for the operator who wants to go a step beyond the one-ton chassis, the Holmes HP 552 is a series of towing and recovery equipment that will provide years of tough, dependable service.  The series is equipped with the LD 6500 underlift, a twelve-ton recovery boom, and winches rated at 15,000 lbs.
The 552 utilizes a dual hydraulic pump, a feature usually found in heavy duty units, to power the Holmes-designed winches.  Combining the winches with the twelve-ton boom provides the strength needed for difficult recovery situations.
The LD 6500 underlift may be used with either L arms or frame forks.  The L arms, with a rating of up to 6,000 lbs. when fully extended 68.5" from the tailboard, will allow you to carry cars, light trucks, and motorhomes.  The frame forks will give you added versatility.

So if your operation requires more than one-ton units..... the Holmes HP 552 is what you are looking for.
