You gave me a great idea. I have a cabin l stay in and l have a dog that chews up my mattress alot. But now lm going to crank the bed up where he can't get it. Lol. Thanks for the idea!

This is great. A no nonsense design and doesn't cost $1k. This is also making one less electrical item for those that could spend the money somewhere else in the build. Thanks for the vid

Great Idea! Instead of that large handle, you could weld a large nut on the end of the threaded rod and use a socket with a 1/2" breaker bar or a Ratchet.

@@BCBackwaters I'm about to start converting a ram promaster and I've been trying to figure out a pully system for a bed lift because electrical ones are like 5000 pre-made and 1500 if I make it my self. This is so smart I don't know why I was unable to think of it.

I was all set to use a roll tarp motor in my build. I think you have convinced me to ditch that and go with a manual crank. No need to try and hide the heavy gauge wires that would be required.

I agree even using a drill although a great idea the amount of turns with a hand crank is just so easy!

very creative idea for a bad lift, I would weld a 3/4 inch or bigger nut on the shaft & use my1/2 inch battery impact tool to lift & lower the bed

Any reason the bar and bearing setup underneath is not mounted in the center of the bed frame?
@BCBackwaters Жыл бұрын
Good question, the bed frame has a bit of flex to it so if I ran the bar through the middle it would probably rub on the 2x4’s. If I could put the rod on 4 bearings through my all my 2x4’s it would probably work. Just did this way because it was easier and allowed for more flexibility. Hope this helps!

You could have just left your ¾ in pipe 2 or 3 in longer then used 1-1in nipple 3in long 2-1in 90's 1-12in nipple 1-6in nipple and 1-1in cap for the handle slide the 3in nipple over the ¾in pipe drill a hole through both and stick a cotter key or a pin with the ball bearing spring lock so you can take the handle off and put back on easily screw a 90 on the 3 in nipple screw the 12in nipple in that 90 screw the other 90 on the opposite end of the 12in nipple pointing away from the other 90 screw the 6in nipple in that 90 and screw the cap on the other end of the 6in nipple vwala removable crank handle just be sure to loktite the 90's or put a spot weld on them so they won't come apart And it's also a handle that won't poke your eye out also you can take it off so you can still close your back door or ramp or roll up door whatever you have but I saw that your handle stuck out to far for your door or ramp to close
