Portable Workshop Mounts On Pickup Bumper
"You can set up a portable mini workshop on any pickup equipped with a square bumper hitch receiver, allowing you to do a variety of jobs right in the field," says Joe Locklear, Locklear Electric, Inc., Wood River, Ill.
The "Hitch It All" consists of a telescoping square steel arm with a flat steel plate on top. The plate has holes in it, allowing you to bolt on a bench vise. Height of the arm can be adjusted. Pull a pin and the unit folds up for storage behind the pickup seat or inside a toolbox.
"It's versatile, adjustable, collapsible, and takes up little room," says Locklear. "It can be used to support pipe vises, chain vises, straight-jawed vises, wire spools, bicycle racks, chop saw stands, power miter saws, camera stands. It can even be bolted to the top of a tailgate. One customer even used it to mount a fish cleaner."
Sells for $125.
