We put a Hiniker 1300 on a Ford 9000 about 15 years ago. I had the cab on a 2 wheel trailer. I temporarily reinforced the bottom cord of 2 roof trusses in my pole barn with horizontal members and 4 temp legs from the truss bottoms to the barn floor. We used 2 come-along hand winches, one on each side pulling on the lifting hooks. (Don't use cheap HF or similar crappy come-alongs).
