Thats some heavy firepower cranewise for such a relatively light load. I wonder why they went with two cranes instead of one crane and a spreader.

If you have the money thats a nice way to control a load .. especially if you are lifting the trucks also. For us cheapies two switch ties, a bunch of cribbing and back under is usually the way. Trucks go on borrowed backhoe trailers.
