My first thought is it is WAY too short wheel base for a tow truck. They use long wheel bases on towtrucks to keep some weight on the front tires when you have something on the hook. Otherwise you will literally be doing wheelies. Or go into a corner to find that there is not enough weight on the front tires to make the truck turn. By the time you lengthen the frame and rig up a hoist you may be cheaper just to keep your eyes open for an old tow truck. Good luck!
