I want to see more about the bed crane.

[@1tonchris]

Bed crane was a great addition, I’ve used it for lifting heavy items in the bed and even used it to pull a motor out of a vehicle. It’s just a cheap one from harbor freight but had to add a nice baseplate when installing to help out.

@@1tonchris How did you brace the mount to the frame?

[@1tonchris]

@@rangerismine I used a metal plate for the top part of the truck bed and drilled holes to connect to the truck bed rails. The steel plate was the best thing to help distribute the load.
