I would imagine theres very little diferences apart from the wheelbase so just use the mounting points that was originally used unless it was mounted at the very rear of the bed

Apart from the length of the reach on the picker compared to the length of the chassis against the stability of the whole unit.

For sake of argument a 6M reach cherry picker on a 406 would not be a good combination.

I presume that this this is going to have to adhere to all of the regs for insurance H&S and all that Jazz, might be worth speaking to someone who actually knows this stuff rather than on an off roading forum?

Hi I have a u1000 and I put a 10 meter simon u35 on the three poinl linkage with no problems, you do realise that the x frame moves in relation to the chassis?

I believe that to answer it well, your question will require more time
and effort than the average amount of time and effort associated with
this price. Here is a link to guidelines about pricing your question,
in the pricing guide:
