Lift System For Pickup Toppers
The lift system is available with either electric, hydraulic, or electric-hydraulic power, but a simple hand crank can also be used.
"With toppers, it's sometimes difficult to reach cargo and they also present a challenge when loading and unloading big items or unusual cargo. Now you can have the best of both worlds," Hebron says. "It's a very simple, effective system that requires minimum modification to install. With a flick of the toggle switch, you have access to your entire box."
The kit's hardware weighs only about 25 lbs., and is capable of lifting 300-lb. toppers. The main kit is designed to fit most cab-high canopies for 1/2 to 1-ton vehicles, and can be adapted to fit any truck box and canopy.
The basic kit price (hardware) is $289 (Can.), and power packs range from $100 to $350.
Hebron owns both Canadian and U.S. patents, which he's now offering for sale or lease.
