Reliable / knowledgeable pickup truck modification in BKK area

Featured Replies

I'm considering modifying a Ford Ranger WildTrak pickup truck with a chassis mounted small crane for lifting heavy items in and out of the bed. For example: big rocks or large cement planters. I'd also like to mount a 12v winch in the bed of the truck and attach it to the chassis.

Can anyone recommend a reliable place in the BKK area that could install / sell / fabricate these kinds of things properly?

Here's a link to an example image of a pickup crane with a hand crank winch...

I'd also like to mount a winch in the bed of the truck... Either as in image below or somehow tied into the chassis...

As far as the winch in the bed, it would be a lot more economical to use the standard front mount and run the cable under the truck for use at the back of the truck.

I understand what you are saying, but I am hoping to winch things into the bed of the truck.

You may find that once you have the crane you don't need the winch. You could use a winch block to pull things into the bed with crane's cable or if the crane is mounted at the back of the bed, slew stuff in.
