Side mounted crane for the 6000 lb trailer

[Frank S]

Since my other small trailer has 2 rear mounted cranes on it I decided that this one needed a crane as well but since the bed tilts the crane had to be mounted on the side independent of the bed

The manual crane was found inthe scrap yard I extended it a few years ago to make it taller then we modified the boom from a 3000 lb engine crane so that it could fold completely vertical

in the back ground is yet another of my homemade trailers but that will be another thread

in the mount I have provisions for a jack down stabilizing leg soon to be made
