Bed Crane:www.northernto...
who needs a crane ! good back an strong arms . i am 64
😁
A 3/16" starter (pilot) hole is recommended prior to honkin' on that 5/8" bit. I just bought this crane from Temu ($280 free shipping) and am going to mount it on a hitch plate rather than in bed. Don't trash me until you see the end result. I'll post a link to my video here once done.
I learned that when I reinstalled it back into my truck along with steel backing plates.
Also look forward to your video to see what you do as well. Best of luck on your install.
Got enough LocTite on there? You only need one drop on the threads where the nut stops. I'm looking at this davit for loading engines in and out of the bed. I will definitely add an electric winch to it though.
The electric winch is in the works and when it comes to certain outside projects like this, I tend to go a little overboard with the Loctite. I know a little goes a long way but I did not want to have it coming loose either.
Nice vid.... Looking to buy the same.... And also looking to add on a wireless 3500 pound winch... Would love to see how you add one on and keep the manual option as well!!
Thanks and good luck with your install as well. Hopefully going to be strengthening up mine on the bed and add a stabilizer leg soon. The hand crank option is nice but an electric winch is just much more controllable in my opinion.
@@BlazerProject yes and gives you an extra hand
@@BlazerProject so are you having stability issues since your last install?
@@JB-wx4wo Not really but I need to strengthen up the base where I put it on the bed considering it likes to flex a little.
Just having an extra sense of insurance when lifting is nice. I will have a video on it hopefully soon if the weather can cooperate at all.
@@BlazerProject good deal.... Thanks would love to watch an update... I will keep you posted on my progress...... So far this brand looks to be the most affordable without sacrificing quality.
What is the heaviest weight you have lifted? Looking to pick one up. Wondering if it can actually handle 2000lbs?
I have not taken to the max load limit yet due to my truck bed cracking around the base and also a few other issues. Heaviest has been actually lifting the one large riding mower up enough to get it off the ground to jack stand it. Just be careful and also know what your vehicle can take because you are only lifting from one side.
Ummm you know the tailgate clips off in seconds real easy right?!
I know, just wanted to see what the crane could do.
REAL GOOD JOB ,MAKING YOURSELF LOOK DUMB ..BOLTING TO TIN BED,THAT WONT HOLD CAT POOP
Learned that lesson the hard way and pulled the crane out soon after this. That was not a fun repair to do and also put in steel plates to help reinforce the bed. I still have a plan to flat bed the truck later on but it works for what I do for now.
debe poner refuerzos macizos x debajo ...se deforma el piso bajo carga
That's a truck bed not a tool box
Do you know the part number on this product?
Its from Northern Tool....www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200672545_200672545
Hope this helps.
Check Harbot Freight....1/2T crane ~$180 minus coupons of 20-25%.
The instructions that come with these are crap.
This needs to be mounted through the frame of the truck.
Otherwise, you need reinforcement under the thin bed steel.
I learned that the hard way when I had to do some work and saw the holes in the metal. Now I have thicker metal for a plan to fix this once the weather improves greatly and allows me to put it back in the truck, that crane is extremely helpful with things.
