sprint54fan Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Anyone using any of the route 66 plush cranes made by S&B out of St Louis.. I have a good deal on a couple and Im considering getting them.. just want to know what your guys opinions are on them..likes? dislikes? I spoke to one member on here and always like to hear more opinions also..thanks! I like the fact that Im only 2 1/2 hours from St Louis so parts would be easy to obtain..

havending Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 They make a good crane. All their wiring and boards are made in St. Louis as well. The staff is very helpful if issues pop up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walta Posted May 24, 2014 Share Posted May 24, 2014 The only bad thing is all their parts are all unique. S&B has a good track record but if they were ever gone parts would be all but impossible. Walta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psk007 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 I have bought some of there machines new over the years and there great until they break down. Because getting parts for these are almost impossible. S&B really SUCKS in the parts department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very friendly also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walta Posted June 16, 2014 Share Posted June 16, 2014 I could not disagree more with psk007 comment about S & B service. Being in St Louis I pick up my parts, to date they have always any part I needed in stock for same day pick up. Walta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
