THE BEST BED LIFT YET!!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 вер 2022
- My upgraded bed build from my previous version using pulleys and rope to this version of straps all located below the bed and self contained.
For materials used see below:
2x 1" Pillow Block Bearings - amzn.to/3RwE79D
1x 3/4" by 72" Black Iron Pipe - Best place to get this would be Home Depot or hardware store
9x Gear Clamps - amzn.to/3AKer2D
4x Ratchet Straps - amzn.to/3TG4cFi
1x 1/2 Flat Steel cut into 4 pieces to hold strapping down (Home Depot)
1x 1/2 Rebar - 2.5ft long depending on handle size (Home Depot)
4x Package of 4 ties downs -amzn.to/3QcI2aG
8x Self tapping Metal Screws - amzn.to/3qqsNAF
1x Electrical Tape - amzn.to/3qqsNAF
(All materials list are not the exact ones but the closest I could find online. Some quantities may also be larger due to buying online versus going into your local hardware store)
I hope seeing this build helped you or has given you some ideas for your current or upcoming project! - Навчання та стиль
BED LIFT 2!!!!!!!!! even better than before!!!!!
It was easier to build then the first one I did and operation is way easier! Thanks for your kind comments! 🙏
@@BCBackwaters I'm about to start converting a ram promaster and I've been trying to figure out a pully system for a bed lift because electrical ones are like 5000 pre-made and 1500 if I make it my self. This is so smart I don't know why I was unable to think of it.
@@ThoburnFreeman It’s way cheaper to make your own and even mine I could improve more by putting it in a track but honestly it works so good compared to my first build. If you have any questions feel free to reach out!
@@BCBackwaters thank you so much man. Keep up the hard work
@@ThoburnFreeman Thanks currently debating getting a bigger trailer for a new build.
Great Idea! Instead of that large handle, you could weld a large nut on the end of the threaded rod and use a socket with a 1/2" breaker bar or a Ratchet.
That’s what he did last time dunno why not again
Great job. Thanks for sharing!
I think is the best idea. Just looking for inspiration and You done the greatest " Cheap solution" . Thank You and all best BC
Thank you! :)
I was all set to use a roll tarp motor in my build. I think you have convinced me to ditch that and go with a manual crank. No need to try and hide the heavy gauge wires that would be required.
I agree even using a drill although a great idea the amount of turns with a hand crank is just so easy!
I'm surprised how easy was it to Crank It Up. Thanks for the video
No problem! Thanks for watching:)
The smartest idea and most simple love it, going to use it.
Love this idea I'm gonna try it I'm not really in to pain $3000 for a happy Jack
I agree and although it looks a little complicated it’s super easy! If you need help feel free to ask questions.
thanks a lot for de video
Does your drill have enough torque to lift bed? You could just grind down end of threaded shaft to lock drill on.
You have a nice merch
Muy buena idea!!... Excellent Idea!!!...
very creative idea for a bad lift, I would weld a 3/4 inch or bigger nut on the shaft & use my1/2 inch battery impact tool to lift & lower the bed
I like it! I have watched both of your videos in preparation of my own build. I liked the simplicity of both of them. With your cabinets are they prefabricated? Also what size is your trailer?
I do have a video on my cabinets! I pre assembled most of it outside of the trailer then finished assembling once it was in place. Trailer is a 7x16. Thanks for watching!
Very cool thanks once again! I’m going to try to come up with an idea to use some sort of power to crank that up snd at the opposite en in a van in my case! Open to any ideas from you or anyone else, please. 🙏🏿 🇨🇦
Great design...use a drill instead the crank handle. Faster.
Yes definitely something I thought about after however I find the hand crank gives me more control. Thanks for the suggestion!
Any reason the bar and bearing setup underneath is not mounted in the center of the bed frame?
Good question, the bed frame has a bit of flex to it so if I ran the bar through the middle it would probably rub on the 2x4’s. If I could put the rod on 4 bearings through my all my 2x4’s it would probably work. Just did this way because it was easier and allowed for more flexibility.
Hope this helps!
Great idea if you could mass produce it would sell.
amazing! What is the strap made out of? How did you know if was strong enough?
ahh I just saw your description, rachet straps!
@@andtheneverythingchangedwh5234 yes and they hold a lot of weight never had an issue with them!
Nice idea! Maybe weld a bolt head and use a cordless drill/impact to wind up and down then nothing sticking out etc... but otherwise great idea!
Thank you!
Omgod pleaser please make a tutorial on how you did this
How bout a nut on the end and use a cordless drill
Yes that would work
You could have just left your ¾ in pipe 2 or 3 in longer then used
1-1in nipple 3in long
2-1in 90's
1-12in nipple
1-6in nipple and
1-1in cap
for the handle slide the 3in nipple over the ¾in pipe drill a hole through both and stick a cotter key or a pin with the ball bearing spring lock so you can take the handle off and put back on easily screw a 90 on the 3 in nipple screw the 12in nipple in that 90 screw the other 90 on the opposite end of the 12in nipple pointing away from the other 90 screw the 6in nipple in that 90 and screw the cap on the other end of the 6in nipple vwala removable crank handle just be sure to loktite the 90's or put a spot weld on them so they won't come apart
And it's also a handle that won't poke your eye out also you can take it off so you can still close your back door or ramp or roll up door whatever you have but I saw that your handle stuck out to far for your door or ramp to close
But you have a drill..
