"textContent": "A hydraulic tow truck anchor system includes a plurality of anchor assemblies, a hydraulic pump system, and a control arrangement. The anchor assemblies are mountable to a bed of a flatbed tow truck and detachably connect to a portion of a vehicle to temporarily secure the vehicle to the bed. The anchor assemblies each include a hydraulic cylinder and piston, an engagement head attached to and movable by the piston to place the piston in a securing engagement with a portion of a vehicle, and a pivoting assembly connected to the hydraulic cylinder to pivot the hydraulic cylinder between a vertical active position and a horizontal storage position. The hydraulic pump system is operatively connected to the hydraulic cylinders. The control arrangement is installable in a flatbed tow truck cab and operatively connected to the anchor assemblies and the hydraulic pump system to permit remote operation of the anchor assemblies.",
