Default ...at the barn...

We use a long reach hi rise floor jack rated at 3 tons on the concrete floor or outside with a 3/4 inch plywood sheet.

My overhead beams with rolling trucks can actually lift the whole front end and move the truck sideways.

for lifting and mov ing hulks around we use the 3 point hitch of the MF 255 with a pintle on the tractor short chain through the 2 D rings of the CMP and the truck behaves like a heavy trailer.

We make extensive use of floor jacks for safety..... having been crushed once with 4 ribs cracked ...... I tend to be careful.

Cheers
