I've seen a number of DESIGNS for sale but it seems that the usual is over $150 for a set. Anyone ever make a homemade set. Doesn't need to be extremely heavyduty, they will only be used on one truck. Pictures would be nice.

I've been using these dollies for over 8 years. My 1/2 ton trucks rolled around nicely inside the garage and in-and-out of the garage on an asphalt driveway.

Sets of four are often on sale for under $100.

I couldn't move my truck with that set on the good concrete gargage floor at the last house and haven't tried them since I moved. Waste of money, if you ask me.

I have a NEW set that I have used only once. Theyre tough and the wheels are steel. They look exactly like the ones that Tim shows a pic of they just didnt' come from the same place....but probably made by the same people....been thinking about putting them up for sale in the swapmeet.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.

Harbor Freight also has some small flat movers dollies. Screw down a couple blocks of wood for wheel stops, and there you go. I think I have seen them on sale for 9.99 each.
