dandan Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Another item my dad has for sale... This is a Reid aluminium extrusion double A frame gantry/frame. It is rated to 2000kg and extends from approx 7ft - 10ft high and the width is approx 15ft. The centre carriage slides back and fro along the top of the crossbar on wheels/castors. Can be used with a pulley, block and tackle or hoist. It is in excellent condition and has barely been used. It has a braked castor on each corner of the A frame and is easy to disassemble to store flat....just a few pins/bolts. One of the photos shows the whole lot in its "flat pack" form showing how little space it takes up. I wanted him to keepit for pulling engines in and out but to be honest we normally use a block and tackle off the back excavator of his JCB - this frame would be a luxury but unfortunately he wants it gone. I've seen them used in car garages and workshops, in builders yards, on various sites and also for lifting gravestones! The list price on this 2000kg version is about £3200 direct from Reid. He wants £1600 for it. He also has a 240V elctric hoist to go with it and I think that is rated to 500kg but Iwill have to double check - the pic shown does not have the guard on the cooling fan...I do have that as I borrowed it for another electric motor while he had the hoist stored away in the garage I will put it back on if it sells. £200 for the elctric hoist. Thanks for looking Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dandan Posted February 28, 2010 Author Share Posted February 28, 2010 I will have a word with my mate later today bud. God man, thanks. My old man is pushing me to get shot of it now, I was hoping he might change his mind but it doesn't look like it. Unfotunately I have no space at my house so I can't keep it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 I am interested in that Dan, but we would have to have a really good bargaining session as it's about 7 foot wider than I need and you are a fair way away. If negotiation is possible we should talk Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
