Homemade Two Wheeler Self Lifting Cart Winch Cable Lift

[@skippermaxxt]

Best plan I've seen yet. I've been thinking about this very thing and already have all the parts. Thanks very much for taking the time to make this video. For the people asking for help modifying this to other applications, please consider what you are asking. It takes a lot of time to design and prove a build like this.

[@SpencersMountain]

@@skippermaxxt glad you found the video useful! Good luck on your build!

[@carloscuriel6308]

You just answered my question, we live on 2.5 acres and that cart with large wheels is a must.

[@SpencersMountain]

Originally this two wheel cart was just a temporary solution for lifting. However the cart has been used for countless other moving duties and has well paid for itself. The oversized tires makes it useful ever over very rough ground and large rocks that would stop other carts. Have even strapped long heavy items to the cart and made it work like a trailer. Saves you back. Thanks for watching!

[@Zdosse]

I wanna do it but don’t have the welder. Thank you for the video anyway sir

[@SpencersMountain]

@@Zdosse a little thinking, I bet you could bolt together without a welder.

[@corneliusjoe2944]

Thank you so much for showing us how to build one of them. For me I nearly have to pull the propane bottle in the truck. Just by looking at your video I'm just going to build myself one.

[@SpencersMountain]

@@corneliusjoe2944 first saw a cart like this on KZbin moving propane and placing in elevated camper compartment. Self lifting carts are commercially available. Very expensive. Glad this video gave you the inspiration to build your own. Thank you for the comment!

[@martycofield4588]

That is awesome, I like the way you think. you keep things simple but effective. Great Job.

[@SpencersMountain]

Thank you. Most of our projects are a quick solution to a problem. One way I did it, up to you to make your own. Thanks for watching!

[@3campingguys431]

Thanks for the detail info!

[@SpencersMountain]

If my crazy ideas can give someone a spark of creativity, then it is all worth the effort. Thanks for watching!

[@grahampreece9267]

Very clever..well done

[@SpencersMountain]

Thanks. Not a lot of clever involved as similar lift carts are commercially available, but rather spendy. We use the large wheel cart for many moving tasks and having the lift removable leaves the cart with much greater utility. A boat winch and junk around the shop did the rest. Thank you for watching!

[@KeithOlbermannn]

Hey Thanks for showing this. I really appreciate it. That gives me several ideas on making one with just a few modifications here and there.

[@SpencersMountain]

Happy to provide a little inspiration. Be interested to see what you come up with. Always different ways to do things.

[@charliesaul729]

Terrific job! You've got mad design and fabrication skills!

[@SpencersMountain]

Sometimes you just have to make things you want. Thank you for watching and the generous comment!

[@mahalomanalo]

This is genius need one to be portable to bring onto boats!

[@SpencersMountain]

Thank you. Certainly better than a sore back. Thank you for watching.

[@markyoungoutdoors2497]

Thankyou for taking the time and effort to break this build down for us. I have a slightly different Milwaukee cart like yours, and this will be a perfect dolly cart lift project for my shop. Thanks again!👏👌ps….Your content looks good and helpful as well, so I subscribed.👍

[@SpencersMountain]

Glad you found this video useful. Hope your project work out well for you. Thank you for subscribing, it is an appreciated compliment!

[@donhendrickson5286]

I am very impressed with your creativity and innovation. I have considered making something similar for similar needs to lift heavy objects in and out of the back of a truck. Your design is relatively simple and light weight - and removable if there is a need to use the hand truck as just a hand truck. All seems straight forward in the design but what and where did you obtain the bearings to fit inside the uni-strut. I purchased 2 different bearings, one was just a little to small in diameter the other was slightly too large in diameter and too thick to fit. I will also say like the others, it is a terrific useful design and great fabrication skills.

[@SpencersMountain]

Thank you for the kind comments. Many hardware stores have the little slide out drawers with fairly standard bearings, but they tend to be pricey that way. You can get 1//2” bearings on Amazon or eBay at a fair cost. The OD of the bearings needs to be smaller than the Unistrut channel. Under load, the carrier can rotate slightly in the channel and the bearings will work fine. The bearing axles can even be offset to limit that rotation. Hope that helps. I use the cart alone several times a week even with a skid loader and forks available. The lift gets into tight places and is very maneuverable. Than you for watching.

Amazing job

[@SpencersMountain]

Thank you! Did you see the debut of this cart? kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3LTpql4aLGfaK8 The original function was to get 100# propane tanks on and off our trailer at home and the refill station. Has been useful for unloading heavy objects from the pickup, moving rock or whatever. Thanks for watching!

[@johnwoody4905]

nice job. take care, be safe and well.

[@SpencersMountain]

Had several people as about the construction of this cart. Hopefully it helps then make one of their own. This was the previous video. Loading 100# Propane Tanks By Ourselves Spencers-Mountain Off Grid DIY Lift Cart kzbin.info/www/bejne/o3LTpql4aLGfaK8 Thank You for watching!

Hola amigo,gracis por el video tan interesante,que cualquier persona,con un poco de idea de soldadura,puede hacerlo facilmente.Bendiciones,y gracias por compartir...

[@SpencersMountain]

¡Gracias por el amable comentario! Es divertido compartir ideas que otros pueden encontrar útiles. Pensando un poco, es posible hacer este levantamiento sin necesidad de soldar. Gracias por ver nuestro vídeo.

[@HeberPerez-ix6sg]

Gracias de nuevo,estimado amigo,es ud un gran ser humano.Dios le bendiga ricamente,con salud,y a los suyos,de igual modo@@SpencersMountain

[@jerryherrellsr8452]

I like the 2 wheel dolly lift with thin unistrut. What size sealed bearings did you use. Most bearings are listed in mm. Thx for your quick response.

[@SpencersMountain]

The bearings are 1/2 “ ID. OD fit inside of Unistrut with just a little spare room (sorry, don’t know OD but slightly smaller than Unistrut will give you a dimension). Metric can work if sized for your Unistrut.

[@artistjerome]

DIY Genius!!!

[@SpencersMountain]

This is still a useful tool. It simply gets into places where other lifting machines can’t go. Thanks for the comment and thank you for watching!

[@MabrayFarm]

Nice job on the lifting attachment! Would you mind sharing the model of two wheeler you used, I really like the width and covers in front of the wheels. Thanks Aaron.

[@SpencersMountain]

Milwaukee P-Handle Hand Truck - 1000lb Capacity Model Number: 49977 hope that helps you out. Unfortunately price is up over 80% since I bought this cart. Thank you for watching.

[@MM-tp2fq]

Hey Mr, Great work ! What is the bearing size and the Ezystruct rail size to match the bearings? Thank you ...from Australia

[@SpencersMountain]

The bearings are a standard 1/2” inside diameter SAE. 1/2” cap screws were used for axles with heads cut off. “Strut” in the USA is basically two sizes. I used the rectangular profile since the bearing fit inside the strut. Assuming you need to convert to metric. 13 mm inside diameter bearings should have similar function with an outside diameter to fit available strut.

[@MM-tp2fq]

@@SpencersMountain thank you Spencer

[@Upsguyy]

This is BADD ASS MR.!!!!!!!!!!!! Could you or would you help me adapt this too a 2” tow hitch for my truck. I pick up a lot of furniture and came across your awesome dolly. Then I thought what if this could be adapted too fit. 2” tow hitch and a base that can swivel so the dresser can be pushed from the front of the opened bed and into the bed of truck. I understand if ur busy I can wait and again. really cool dolly Spencer

[@SpencersMountain]

Thank you. Do a quick search for “pickup hitch crane”. Seems a crane could provide height difference and transfer capability. Thanks for watching!

[@DareckCrane-p2h]

Hi, I have an 8ft trailor, and I clean trash bins, any help or guidance on how I can build a lift thats attached to my trailer via some sort wood board etc and lift trash bins up?

[@SpencersMountain]

Not sure what kind of setup you need, but check out the first few seconds of this video. kzbin.infoSiGo1ihchZY?feature=share

Similar to this. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l2jSZIGHn5agqrs

[@coronaman9438]

When you mention angle11 3/8 for the top of your lift cart is the whole Fram that size ? Or does it depend on my Milwaukee cart thank you for this video back saver for sure ❤😊

[@SpencersMountain]

@@coronaman9438 the 11-3/8” angles fits tight between the upright tubes of my two-wheeler frame. That width would depend on your particular cart frame inside to inside width. Idea is to basically hold the uni-strut bearing rails on top of the carts frame to directly bear weight and fully support those two uni-strut rails. So, yes it may depend on your particular cart frame width. I pointed out where I moved a strap on the cart, the factory welded that strap crooked. Unfortunately I measured one side and built the lift, then it would no fit. I corrected the cart rather than modify my lift to fit. Hope that explains things. Thank you for watching!

[@coronaman9438]

@@SpencersMountain then I am on the right path. The only thing I did differently was added an electric bad lands winch and a battery other than that mine is a twin to yours once again ingenious ability also cost effective 100%

[@jhonwayne1003]

Is one of these able to be bought?

[@SpencersMountain]

We will not be making any due to lack of time. However if you do an internet search for keywords “ hand truck winch stacker” and look at images you should find similar hand trucks for sale in various configurations to suit you needs. Thanks for watching.

[@deadcarz4926]

I do find the drop-cloth to protect the bed, rather amusing.

[@SpencersMountain]

@@deadcarz4926 there is carpet in the bed. The drop cloth does help the aluminum tailgate paint and boxes slide easier. Then the drop cloth helps keep the fine powder dust from the Mountain road off of loads. So, the drop cloth normally lives in the back of the truck and is multi-function.
