Default Homemade lift boom on 149

I did post this on another site a week or so ago but here is a simple lifting bar I made for my 149. It took just a few minutes to make and another for the paint to dry. 1" solid bar stock with a hook welded to it. It works good for tow trucking the 147 around. From what I was told the main shaft was worn letting the Hydraulic fluid pass into the drive side of the hydro system when I am lifting it. I sold the 149 to buy a 1872 SGT. I miss playing with the lift though. I want to make one for the SGT. What can I say, simple things amuse me.
