Grant..
I agree with your analysis ..and don't know enough about the ratings except what was in the manuals ./I never saw a dedicated CMP Wrecker manual but think the tonnage ratings on the W-45 were too much for the CMP Wrecker which was mated to the C-60S ..on many of the illustrations of actual trucks in the field that I saw..
Rolf Ask in Norway has a beauty..
There are pictures of it on the forum somewhere..
The W-45 capacity was too big for the three ton...more suited to the Diamond "T"s and the Macks..
Wild Bill has the Big D with a W-45 on it..He should drive it up from Burton so we could look at it..
I'll buy him all the hamburgers and beer at Bobby's he can stuff in his face ..
Or did I miss that..??
