i like your plan and would like a close-up of the support bar to see just how that works. surely would need wheel locks to make sure it stays put..

I will try and get some in the next couple days basically its a pivot with a spring loaded sleeve that slides up and locks it in place

ah-ha, that makes sense. so you can lock it in one handed. great job. where did you find the ambulance stretcher? im assuming it will line up to the pick-up bed for easy in and easy out. sorry for all the q's this is just the perfect thing for the mechanic on the go.

it started out as an x frame stretcher that i cut apart and made an h frame out of, would be alot simpler if you staart out with an H frame but i couldnt find one anywhere around here, h frame were one man stretchers and everyone has went to the two man x frame, i got mine from an ambulance service that ordered new ones and was supposed to destroy the old ones, so i destroyed it for them the box is an aluminum box designed for flat bottom boats, tool racks used to be bed rail off a ford truck, some hitch pins, all thread, and aluminum flat stock later this is what icame up with.
