New 2027 Kenworth T880 Simard Twin-Steer with Century 1075 75-Ton Rotator For Sale

Overview

The new 2027 Kenworth T880 Simard twin-steer with Century 1075 75-ton rotator is a purpose-built heavy recovery truck engineered for towing companies handling the industry's most demanding recovery work. Powered by a 605 HP Cummins X15 and paired with an Eaton 18-speed manual transmission, this regular-cab T880 provides an exceptional Class 8 foundation for Century's 75-ton rotating recovery platform.

The Simard twin-steer configuration, Dual H-style outriggers, proportional controls, additional drag and side winches, and an extensive rigging and attachment package make this a true heavy-recovery platform—not simply a large tow truck.

From overturned tractor-trailers and buses to heavy equipment and complex commercial recoveries, this T880 has been equipped to give experienced operators an extraordinary range of recovery options when they arrive on scene.

Kenworth T880 Simard Twin-Steer Chassis

At the heart of this build is the vocational Kenworth T880, configured with a Simard twin-steer system to create the specialized chassis foundation required for this 75-ton rotator.

Power comes from a 605 HP Cummins X15 diesel engine paired with an Eaton 18-speed manual transmission. This combination provides the horsepower and operator control expected from a flagship heavy-recovery truck.

The regular-cab configuration keeps the truck focused on its primary mission: providing a serious working platform for heavy towing and recovery.

Century 1075 75-Ton Rotator

The Century 1075 75-ton Rotator is designed for the upper end of professional heavy-duty towing and recovery. Its rotating recovery boom allows operators to approach complex incidents from positions that would be difficult or impossible for a conventional integrated wrecker.

This truck is equipped with Dual H-style outriggers, creating a wide and stable working footprint for demanding recovery operations.

A proportional control package gives the operator precise control of recovery functions, an important advantage when handling complex lifts, uprighting vehicles, or working around sensitive equipment.

Additional Recovery Winch Capability

Beyond the primary recovery equipment of the Century 1075, this truck has been equipped with additional winching capability to expand the operator's options on scene.

A 50,000-lb drag winch provides substantial additional pulling capability, while dual 22,000-lb side winches give operators additional recovery lines for situations requiring pulls from different directions.

Combined with the rotating boom and H-style outriggers, these additional winches make this truck exceptionally adaptable to complicated recovery scenes.

Serious Rigging for Serious Recoveries

A rotator of this capability needs the rigging equipment to match. This 1075 includes an extensive recovery package designed to give operators multiple options for lifting, pulling, uprighting, and controlling heavy loads.

Recovery equipment includes:

• 8-Ton Snatch Block

• 12-Ton Snatch Block

• 15-Ton Snatch Block

• Dedicated Snatch Block Rack

• 20-Ton Spreader Bar Kit

• Spreader Bar Storage

• Spreader Bar Rigging Kit

• Eliminator Bridle

• Rotator Choker & Storage

• Foundry Hook Kit

• Heavy-Duty Chain Kit

• Shackles

• Shackle Hangers

• Trailer Recovery Loop

• 36" Chain Rack

• Dual-Hole Tie Downs

• D-Ring Kit on H-Beam Side

The dedicated storage systems are especially important on a truck carrying this much equipment, helping keep heavy rigging organized and accessible when operators need it.

Heavy Towing & Underlift Attachments

This Kenworth is also equipped to handle a broad range of heavy towing applications once the recovery work is complete.

The towing and attachment upgrade package includes:

• Volvo Forks

• MCI Bus Lift Fork

• Spacer Kit

• Pintle Hook Kit

• Fifth-Wheel Adapter

• Convert-A-Ball

• Trailer/Gooseneck Ball Kit

• 10,000-lb Underlift Strap Kit

This range of equipment expands the truck's ability to work with tractors, trailers, motorcoaches, vocational trucks, and other heavy commercial vehicles with different hookup requirements.

Storage & Operator Organization

Heavy recovery equipment only helps if operators can access it efficiently. This 1075 has been configured with substantial dedicated storage throughout the body.

A 36" tunnel box, seven-drawer toolbox, shelf kit, air-line storage kit, chain rack, snatch block rack, spreader bar storage, rotator choker storage, and shackle hangers provide dedicated locations for frequently used equipment.

The result is a recovery truck designed not only to carry an extensive equipment package, but to keep that equipment organized for real-world operation.

Advanced Scene Lighting & Warning Package

Complex recoveries frequently happen at night, along busy highways, or in poor weather. This T880 features an extensive warning and scene-lighting package designed around visibility and operator awareness.

Equipment includes:

• 72" Freedom IV Lightbar

• Flasher Control Kit

• Flashing Warning Door Light

• Strip Lamps

• M6V Lights

• M6 Lights

• Flex Lamp

• Motorized Boom Light

• Upper Work Lights

• Lower Work Lights

• Swivel Work Lights

The motorized boom light provides particularly useful illumination around the working area of the rotator, while upper, lower, and swivel lighting helps illuminate the recovery scene from multiple angles.

Cameras, Power & Operator Support

A dual flush-mount camera system provides additional visibility around this exceptionally large truck, helping the operator when maneuvering and positioning the rotator.

An A/C inverter kit provides onboard electrical capability for additional equipment in the field.

The truck is finished with stainless steel dress-up kits, adding a premium appearance appropriate for a flagship Kenworth rotator.
