Default Winch- manual winch for my generator

I built this winch frame for my truck bed. I always needed help loading and unloading my generator. Sometimes I left it for days cause I didn't have any help. I built a ramp as well just because I had extra angle from another project. Total cost was maybe $100 including ****** blocks and d-rings.

I did something for a similar (for a roof top tent in this case), but in a different way. But it would work for you or anyone.

Hand crank line with a bottle jack powered boom:

What is the bar thing running across the tailgate?

Ya mean the "stripper pole"? (yellow **** handle) Access assist to use with the built in ladder step in the tailgate.

Yep. Since none of the area dealers order them with the step, I have never seen one before.

Nice job on the winch BTW
