ABSTRACT:
A wrecker attachment in kit form for mounting on the bed of a truck in rigid relationship with its underlying frame. The wrecker attachment includes a back post assembly for mounting a boom assembly, a floor plate assembly for bracing the back post assembly and positionally locating same on the truck bed, and mounting plate assemblies for clamping the back post and floor plate assemblies relative to the truck bed and rigidly securing same to the truck frame. The construction and method of assembling the wrecker attachment allows same to be accommodated for use with trucks having differing spacings between the channels comprising their frames and/or between such frames and the under side of their beds, as well as for inaccuracies in alignment or centering of such attachment relative to the frame of any given truck.
