Utilizing a Trailer hitch!!

[jimcaf]

Iv got a 66ford 3/4 has been an on going project,,i just converted it into a Flat Bed,,i came up with an idea a few monthes ago and decided it would be handy to adapt my engine stand and my cherry picker to the reciever hitch,,when you think about it,its amazing the uses of a reciever hitch,,,,,

Excellent idea!

I think I saw a crane at Northern that went into the receiver hitch, and had two fold down legs for additional support. That seemed like a great alternative to a welded in place crane on the truck body.

There are times when I'd like to have a portable crane , but don't want one welded or bolted in the bed of my truck.

If you have the picture of your crane idea, I'd like to see it.
