P500 Hitch Hoist modification

[Olaf]

I made my own rear rack and hoist to be used for lifting, field dressing, and hauling deer. Already had everything onhand except the winch.

Thank you. I’m just not much on buying if I can build it myself, which means I can build it the way I want.
I’m planning on making a 2” front receiver that will be right below my front winch. I have my winch mounted in the high position. I already have the materials. Just have to wait until I feel better. Found out on July 17th I have a cancerous tumor between my Rh lung and rib cage. It invaded my 7th and 8th rib, and the 8th rib has been broken since July 1st. I’ll be half done with chemo on Thursday and will be done with radiation next Monday. Have surgery in Jan to remove tumor and repair ribs. Take 2 months to recover from that, then I’m ready to get back into backyard engineer mode. 😂😂

I hope you get well and a speedy recovery

Prayers for you and the family. Sounds like you’ve got the right attitude about it. Kick that cancers ass and get back to your fabricating.

Congrats on the successful hunt.

I also deer hunt solo. I bought an adapter to go to a 2 inch receiver and I install a hitch haul when I hunt. It is low enough to the ground can drag my deer over it and don’t have to lift it. View attachment 229652View attachment 229653

I have a rake like that. Throws to much mud on the deer for me.

Good luck with your surgery and recovery....

Just got a 2018 P5 (new to me) and I love it! I'm in Louisiana and love to deer hunt but hard to load deer solo. Pic is of HME Hitch Hoist that a friend modified for me so I don't have to take off and put back on each trip. Now to punch a hole in a buck and see how easy it is to load.
I'm new to forum and am enjoying all the ideas for my P5!
