A winch mounting kit includes a first mount that may be removably coupled to a stanchion. The first mount may have a winch is removably attached thereto such that the winch is secured on the stanchion. A second mount is provided that may be removably coupled to a horizontal support. The second mount may have the winch being removably attached thereto such that the winch is secured on the horizontal support. A third mount is provided that may be removably coupled to a vertical support. The third mount may have the winch being removably attached thereto such that the winch is secured to the vertical support.

The present invention relates generally to the field of animal lifts. More specifically, the present invention relates to a vehicle-mountable game animal lift device that is primarily comprised of a vertical mast, at least one winch, at least one cable, and at least one hanging bar. The device is durable and made of metal such that it can retain the weight of large game animals and hold them steadily to the device. The device is also comprised of a winch that can easily lift an animal from the ground. In this manner, the device can be attached to any ATV or utility vehicle known in the art such that an individual may lift and transport any fallen game animal out of a hunting area without the assistance of others.

A system and method for lifting and moving items includes a vertical post including on its lower end a horizontal extension for removably inserting into the hitch receiver receptacle of an ATV; on the opposite, upper end of the vertical post, a cantilever extends horizontally forward, away from the vehicle; pulleys are attached at each corner of the assembly; and a winch mounted on the ATV proximate the hitch receiver receptacle includes a cable that extends around each pulley and then vertically downward from a pulley at the outermost end of the cantilever portion. The end of the cable may be attached to an item to be lifted, and operation of the winch retracts the cable, lifting the item off the ground, the item then moved by repositioning the ATV.

A hitch attachment for dragging logs from a vehicle. The hitch attachment includes a base having a distal end and a proximal end. The proximal end of the base is configured to fit within a tow receiver of the vehicle. A vertical frame extends from the base in between the proximal end and the distal end. A log cradle is coupled to the distal end of the base. The log cradle includes a plurality of vertically extending teeth.

A vehicle winch game loader. The device includes a central support including a first pulley connected to an upper end thereof. A rear support is connected to the upper end of the central support. A front support includes a rear end connected to a lower end of the central support and a front end having a second pulley connected thereto. The front support extends in a direction opposite the rear support. A crossbar is connected to the lower end of the central support, wherein the crossbar is oriented perpendicular to the front support. A rear end of the rear support is configured to frictionally engage a rear end of a vehicle when the crossbar and the front support are supported on an upper surface of a front end of the vehicle. The device may be utilized to load game or other objects onto the vehicle using the vehicle's winch.

Utility Task Vehicles comprise a chassis, a truck body mounted to the chassis, a truck bed for holding material, and a hydraulic and/or electrical system. What is presented is a lifting unit for a Utility Task Vehicle that is factory built into the Utility Task Vehicle or an after-market add-on to the Utility Task Vehicle. The lifting unit comprises a cross-bracket mounted to the underside of the chassis and a side rail along one side of the truck body. A rotatable horseshoe hinge is mounted to the side rail. The horseshoe hinge is configured to pivot between a lower position and an upper position. An interchangeable attachment is configured to be installed on the horseshoe hinge. The interchangeable attachment could be, for example, a rock picker, a material lifting bucket, a log and bag loader, a deer skinning pole, or a hoist.

A modular trailer system is disclosed. The system may include variously configured modular rails, tie down systems, fender mounting systems, cable fences, modular ramps, and/or mountable accessories whereby the versatile trailer system may be readily reconfigured.

A field-mountable winch assembly comprising a boom, boom mount, motor, drum, rollers for supporting a line, base, rotating drum and a clamp is disclosed. The field-mountable winch assembly may rotate a drum pulling a line over rollers raising a power line to be attached to a utility pole. The winch may be clamped to the crossbeam of the utility pole freeing a utility platform of the tools necessary to raise the power line.

A device that attaches to the trailer hitch of a vehicle or rack of an all-terrain vehicle, ATV, to lift and transport large game. This device uses a stationary main lift frame assembly attached to a trailer hitch mounting bracket or ATV mounting rack bracket. The assembly has a custom two-reel winch with a fixed reel and a longitudinally adjustable reel to provide two-point lifting of the animal. This arrangement provides ease of attaching and stability in carrying the load.
