I got one of those slightly hokey mini truck bed cranes from the Harbor Freight. Bit of an impulse buy, but I wanted to save my back while loading heavy scrap or equipment. I liked this one because it was compact and would fit nicely out of the way in the bed. Had no delusions however, that the mounting would need to be improved over what the instructions recommended...
My visions of grandeur soon faded as I realized tying into the truck's frame was not going to be as easy as I initially thought. There's not much room between the bed and the frame, and I wasn't real keen on welding directly to the frame. In the end I think it will work decent enough, but may need some additional work for heavy abuse.
