Therefore don't use the wooden longrails. Hoists are made to work with steel channels or I-beam sills. I've seen old trucks with wooden longsills but they weren't really safe then and their not now and none of the newer hoists are made for them so don't do it. I see your new and Welcome aboard. You couldn't get anyone to insure it done that way. Hard enough to get insurance with any kind of dump on these old girls. | | |
