Just a word of caution. My father in-law bought a stand that was rated for 1250 lbs, or so it said. It came assembled from the store and the idiot that built it left out a bolt. We didnt see it until it collapsed and fell over. luckily the hoist was still attached. I would definately make sure that it is bolted together well before you use it. To me it didnt seem as strong as some others. I think it was cheaply built and overpriced.
