Location Edmonton, AB
Date Completed June 2026
Vehicles Kenworth W900
Duration 2 Weeks

Project Overview

Heavy recovery work happens in the worst possible conditions. On a scene like that, being seen isn't about looks; it's about keeping the crew and everyone around them safe. Oil Country Towing brought their Kenworth W900 heavy wrecker to Mega-Tech to be outfitted for exactly that environment.

We installed a complete Whelen amber warning package built around the Edge 9X light bar and M Series LED light heads, positioned around the truck for full perimeter coverage, then finished the build with a custom 3M reflective graphics package in Oil Country Towing's green-and-white livery. The result is a heavy recovery unit that commands attention on any roadside, highly visible when it counts, and unmistakably branded everywhere it works.

Project Highlights

Challenges Overcome

  • thunder Lighting a Heavy Wrecker: A heavy recovery truck has a large, complex profile — cab, stacks, recovery body, and boom. Positioning the Edge 9X and M Series heads for true 360-degree coverage takes planning so there are no dark spots around the work area.
