    Great deal on a back saver for your Deuce

    Any updates on cranes for the duece? I am moding my braces to reduce the bending in the bed and I will post picts of that when done. Just one of my best additions to the duece and it has lifted a lot saving my back from a lot of icy hot. ADR was looking for the licence plate location on my...

    Great deal on a back saver for your Deuce

    Thanks for the posts and welcome to the site. You will find it a great place to hang out and learn a lot too. Your truck looks great and the crane you have is one I considered but went with the short one to allow the troop seats to remain functional with minimum fooling around. I have toyed...

    Great deal on a back saver for your Deuce

    RE: Updated Photos of the little crane that could You will notice that the heavy pick warped the bed of the duece even with additional backing plates below the bed. I am going to straighten the bed and instal a bigger base plate on the crane. It was my fault for overloading it but I had to...

    Great deal on a back saver for your Deuce

    RE: Great deal on a back saver for your duece The questions are great and I will try to answer them as I know. It does not come with a come along although I have used cheap ones the chain hoist in the pictures cost a lot more than the crane. Whithout a come along or chain hoist the crane will...

    Great deal on a back saver for your Deuce

    RE: Great deal on a back saver for your duece I looked hard at that one too since Mike said he had one and liked it but I wanted a small out of the way one and the lift is fine when the boom is extended.

    Great deal on a back saver for your Deuce

    I have been looking for a lifting buddy since my boys are out more than home any more and I am over the hill of the half century mark so I have been considering a crane for some time.
