Argo Storage Lift?

[pcmark]

Has anyone seen the Argo, wheeled storage lift on Ebay? Seems like a great way to move an Argo around a garage for tight storage, but would it harm the tub or under carriage? Thanks.

It wont harm the machine, but I wonder how sturdy it is. It says 1000 Lbs max weight, but an 8x8 avenger is 1200#

It does look like a good idea for greasing the bearings.

I use a pallet jack. if it isn't quite tall or long enough for the machine in question, stack some 2x6 boards on it. I can usually find good used ones around here for ~ $100

I would just buy a set of 4...... 500 to 1000 lbs dolly wheels and mount them under some wood framing and drive on top if your looking to move it around for storage. Build it strong, wood is cheap and it will hold all the weight you want it to hold and the weight of the machine will be on your tires. Or you could buy those tire dollies but the wheel size is to small for my liking...makes it hard to push.

I think the plastic would deform under the weight over time, may not cause any real damage if you get the support under the steel frame in the argo

The Argo operators manual shows where to lift at. Front and rear just under the frame and not on the chain channels. I made a set of blocks from a 2x10 board that slides under the front and rear and allows for a jack to go between the boards to lift the end. I figure a 2x10 can handle the load no problem.

here's a couple that might work? I have the snowmobile one that works good. the other is for motorcycles.
