I have a 2-1/4 ton one. Bought it for lifting 500 pound coils , reaching into trailer , and setting coil on machine. Works great! I can see many other uses for it also. On sale at auto parts $199.00

I have a 5 ton Contrax gantry crane and don't now how I made it before. Great for splitting tractors, lifting engines, changing tires, adding duals, and many other projects. I found it on ebay, they usually have a couple listed. Good luck.

We had a factory made one, it was so handy we overloaded it and it folded up. Built a much heavyer one and again it was so handy we bent the boom on it and had to make that stronger. Must have got it right as it has several years on it and still going good. The legs are the rails from a F 30 Farmall and although it doesn't fold up the legs are made to swing in and out to make it wider or very narrow.

I have a 2-ton EX-CELL that a picked up at Sam's
Club. Well made, USA built I believe, and cost
around $200. It does not fold up for storage, but
I think the ones in Sam's now do fold up.

Got mine a couple weeks ago from TIP Tools in Canfield Ohio. It is also 2 ton with a larger ram, have used it to remove tire and rim from my 60, works great. Paid 199.00 on sale. Be sure to get one with that folds up as it takes up less room in shop. I see all kinds of things that it will be used for later. Hope this helps.
