Just Google the names and you'll turn up Craigslist posts, EBay sales, supplier's advertising boards, Mikey's wants ad and others.

Try used Vortex truckmounts for sale and used Aerotech truckmounts for sale and see what you get.

Its a 04 vortex 720 on ud1200

long story but the 720 is actually a 6008........

as far as I am concerned....that was the sweet spot for the vortex units......

the UD's are log wagons...but they are built to last....if taken care of then she still has a lot of life left in her...
If not...it is a spendy truck to fix.....

there were not to many of those out there....

most around that year were put into 1400 UD's......

the 1200 are smaller capacities....

mine was labeled a 720...but then Shawn sent me the right label....

the one your talking about should look like this........but with out the upgrades...

Cool stuff.

My career path-

Machinist
Machine shop owner - lost hundreds of thousands
Owned a supply company for oil field supply
Medical device start-up exec
PAINTER
Restoration
Wanta be carpet cleaner

I got tired of the fast paced life as an exec and moved back to Texas. I painted a bunch of houses and high end stuff with my wife for a while while we were buying restoration stuff. Retail painting can be very good.

i like it!

Must be a o/o truck for sure.

Always a good sign to see him stocking all those filters.

Absolutely love all the extra gauges, I plan on adding a few of those this year.
Boost, oil pressure and trans temp is what I want.

Looks like they likely just did a lot detailing. A lot of black rattle can that may not hold up well but it does look like it has been well maintained.

The pink and the herculiner on everything broke the deal for me.

Seriously though, this guy or gal has put a lot of both time and money into this truck and the condition and extras provided are just fantastic. With a vacuum line upgrade this truck will rock for a long time.

Looks like the tranny also has been rebuilt sometime lately.

Only bad thing will be is whoever buys this truck will need 25k in cash as I don't see a bank financing a 14 year old truck.
