Heavy lifting

[Crows Nest]

Hi all. I’m looking at hitch-mount hoists to lift our generator and other hefty items into our truck bed. Has anyone used one and, if so, which model/manufacturer?

I have a Spitzlift that I bought over 20 years ago. It works well and is fairly light. However, I just looked it up and it is now crazy expensive. Here’s the link:

I have a truck bed shell so that won’t work. Thanks anyway.

I also have this, but it’s a lot more expensive now too. I chose it because it is also light weight.

No benefit if you need hoisting while 'on the road' but I use one of these for loading things at home-base (it folds for storage)
