Here you can see I cut the trunk down far enough so I can squirt to the next trees and work over the spar without touching the boom. With a straight boom you can't get lower than the angle fro m the turret of the lift over the top of the stem. That's a weak example but I do happen to have it...

I'm very much fond of the SD64's telescoping upper boom with the jib and elevator style lower boom. Full reach up to 33', 60' high and still 30' of side reach. The telescoping boom squirts through limbs/holes without scratching the boom up.

You can pull a 60' spider with a half ton truck, you're looking at 5-6klbs for the spider. Adding outriggers to the truck to stabilize the lift wouldn't work practically, huge liability to contend with and the lifts aren't made to be stabilized except through their outriggers. Your best bet...

A spider already does that. Outfitting a $40k+ truck to carry the spider to use as a bucket would be tough. Why not spend $8k (guesstimate) and have a trailer built?

The only problem I see is you'd be looking at a $200k 60-70' lift that's half the speed of a bucket truck or less.
