The shop crane transition
Was wondering what I could do with my shop crane after the boys left home. This crane is very versitle on the the back of my JD750 with little work. It is totally adjustable especially with my T&T.
 Hope the pictures come through attached.

Have about 90lbs hanging on the front. Think the lift arms would go before the draw bar does. Only try to lift what the 3pt would lift. The top link will lift much more than that but try not to do that so I don't break anything.This worked great in putting a 1,500lb picnic table together. A real back saver. My wife is my helper and she loves it

Re: The shop crane transition
Nice adaptation of the standard shop crane that's available from many sources.
For any out there who may want to build your own shop crane, or just the parts needed to make the one shown here, How-To-Plans.com has very detailed plans for sale. I bought a copy and plan on doing something based on them even though I have one of the 2 ton shop cranes already.

 They aren't going to blow away. Only one that bid on them. Guess everyone else thought they were to heavy. It was the excuse I was looking for to retro my crane. Had been thinking about doing that for a while.

I like my cooler holder too. It's out of the way and easy to get to especially when it gets to 115 degrees.
