i am having a few jack issues... and i dont really like to leave them on with the camper is on and its a PITA to install and remove them (Well its not that bad but i could do without it). also i have my hawk on a F350 with 33" tires so its pretty high off the ground.
i have a pole shed thats 12' high, i am starting to give some thought for something to lift the camper straight up and then lower it onto sawhorses for storage. then when its time to install it lift it up again back in and lower it down.
i guess the trick would be to be able to move the camper around a little bit when its hoisted so i dont have to be bang on with the truck. electric winch or crank, thinking something like a 2 1/4x 2 1/4 x 10' steel square stock that slips under the sides and lift it from there (i dont really like how my corner brackets are mounted too)
attached is a picture of the pole shed, its an old picture i have since brought up the grade 1-2' with crush and leveled it off and its empty right now. its a pretty darn solid structure so i am not concerned with the weight.
any thoughts or anyone done this before?
