    The A-frame kit (hoist) for M35-let's talk about it

    Would you be able to post basic dimensions, like assembled length and length of the main cable? It looks a bit short...

    The A-frame kit (hoist) for M35-let's talk about it

    I use a 12 volt winch powered from the pickup truck I’m loading/unloading. But obviously a 24 volt winch will be much more independent. I just didn’t see the need to own 2 winches👍

    The A-frame kit (hoist) for M35-let's talk about it

    It really helps!! Instead of using the PTO winch, I use an electric one suspended from a sling.

    The A-frame kit (hoist) for M35-let's talk about it

    Yes, two-piece telescoping; larger diameter for the lower pieces. I use 3/4” military tow bar pins. If you look at the first drawing in post #123, you can see on the left side sketches for both the top and bottom pieces for one leg.

    The A-frame kit (hoist) for M35-let's talk about it

    The boom stowed with new brackets: The center clamp can have a padlock or safety pin; the poles are tilted down at the front to drain rainwater. Yes, the rear pins (last pic) are not quite long enough to look good, but they contact both ears.

    The A-frame kit (hoist) for M35-let's talk about it

    This is something I put together. It's based on a couple drawings I found. It is not a faithful rendition of what is found in the TM's, but it is lightweight enough to erect and use by myself. I AM NOT advocating anyone else use these drawings for any purpose other than for discussion...
