New Tool Gantry Crane

First use of new crane.

Works good so far. Very easy to lift stuff.

Should work great, for removing cab, bed, and moving frame.

Grandson doing lifting

Thanks,
Les

Re: New Tool Gantry Crane

I have the same one from Harbor Freight. I did't like the fact that you could barely fit a truck within the uprights. I went to my local steel vendor and walked there yard for a remnants and found a much thicker 11' beam and some heavy plates to weld to it. Works much better know and has 10' clear and I think I spent about $75.00. Good luck with the new toy. CHIZZLER.

Chizzler,
Sounds like a nice upgrade, will look into finding a longer top I-beam too.
