Some of you may have seen the pictures of my Rear Axle Dolly in some of the pics I post, so I thought I would start a new thread and post a couple more pics.
I got tired of killin my back moving rear axles in the shop. Yes, I have a floor jack and a cherry picker too along with a electric chain hoist, but it's still a pain in the back to move an axle around.
I built this using some 4" Steel Channel scrap that I had left over. It's adjustable for width, and also height. I can set an axle on it and without having the rims I can set the axle at the height of the wheel center that I plan to use. That way I can set the axle under the chassis and set up the suspension pieces to the frame. It also has locking caster on both sides, very handy ! "BH"
