2016 PRINCETON PB55.3 (Refurbished 2025)
Description
2016 Princeton PB55.3 Piggyback Truck Mounted Forklift | 12-Foot Mast
Available now is a 2016 Princeton PB55.3 piggyback truck mounted forklift that has been carefully refurbished and refinished to provide dependable service in daily delivery operations. This machine is well suited for industries such as building supply, agriculture, logistics, and lumber distribution—any operation that requires reliable unloading directly at the jobsite.
The 12-foot mast offers the lift height typically needed for palletized materials and construction products, making it a practical choice for delivery fleets that rely on consistent performance in the field.
The Princeton PB55.3 platform is widely recognized for its rugged and uncomplicated design, making it a preferred option for operators who want durability and ease of maintenance rather than unnecessary complexity.
Comprehensive Refurbishment for Reliable Performance
This forklift has undergone an extensive refurbishment process focused on restoring mechanical condition and ensuring long-term operational reliability.
The machine was steam cleaned to expose any potential issues before service work began. After cleaning, technicians performed detailed hydraulic pressure checks and leak inspections. Components subject to wear—including hoses, fittings, hydraulic cylinders, mast chains, rollers, bearings, pins, and bushings—were thoroughly evaluated and repaired or replaced where necessary.
The result is a forklift prepared for consistent day-to-day service in demanding delivery environments.
Professional Refinish with Industrial-Grade Paint
As part of the restoration process, the forklift was partially disassembled so major components—including the hood, rear panels, and rollover protection structure—could be properly cleaned and prepared.
Each component was sanded and refinished using a two-stage PPG urethane paint system, producing a durable and professional appearance designed to withstand the wear and tear of commercial delivery work.
Additional Truck Mounted Forklifts Available
In addition to this 2016 Princeton PB55.3, we regularly stock a broad range of truck mounted forklifts, including popular models such as:
Princeton PB50
Moffett M55
Other piggyback forklift platforms
We also carry flatbed trucks and flatbed trailers, helping customers assemble complete last-mile delivery setups from a single source.
This PB55.3 is work-ready and competitively priced. Contact us today for current availability or shipping options.
Need More Reach?
For applications that benefit from one-side unloading and extended reach, take a look at the Loadmac 855 Super Reach. Unlike many competing models that require optional equipment for added reach, the Loadmac design incorporates extended reach directly into the mast as a standard feature.
Extended-reach Princeton and Moffett units are rarely available on the used market, while the Loadmac design provides reach capability without the bulky overhangs sometimes seen on aftermarket solutions. This results in a forklift that remains compact, balanced, and easier to maneuver in tight delivery environments.Specifications
