Forklift Load-able Ladder Rack


This might be a nice change from manually loading stuff at the lumber yard $600

Re: Forklift Load-able Ladder Rack


My Hauler Racks set up allows for forklift drops as well. 1K lb. capacity though I try not to max it out! For that much lumber, I'll have them deliver!!
And Davitk, ya just gotta get in good with the yard guys, they'll take care of you...

Is that your new set up, Wallmaxx, or a stock photo?

Re: Forklift Load-able Ladder Rack


Nope....just a stock photo. Only $600. I like the rack idea. I'm not so sure about 1000 pounds on the sides of my bed though. I'd hate maxx it out and crush the sides, lose the load, kill someone who didn't necessarily need a good killin...you know the drill.

I'm looking at having the rails run to the bottom of the bed....

any suggestions
