Would you be able to lift the cap off of an 8 ft bed?

I assume you are trying to remove a bed cover from a 8' truck bed? The boom is not long enough to reach the center of the bed, to safelyremove the cap. Might be possible to add an additional piece of tube to the boom to reach center of the cap, but weight capacity would be sacrificed.Don't think it would be a good idea. Got a big tree limb or can you add a lifting eye in a garage?

no you will not get the extension, but still is a great tool, I love it saved my back many times

Weight wise yes but lift arm will be to short you only have a two foot reach from base

no, it doesn't lift that high. But there are much easier ways to remove the cap and leave on a rack

Not as well, the diameter of the cap on the 'blow" end is more like 3/8" so you would loose a lot of thrust.

Maybe with a lag bolt into the stud. Don't know if you would be able to get the cap over the bolt hole

Def not a six foot bed pick up or a van. Maybe an eight foot bed truck but you might have to have the tail gate down so bring some rope.

Possibly, but it wouldn't be optimal. The stairs are integral to the bed structure, which makes it really sturdy altogether. Taking the top bed off is easy, though it may sway a bit by itself, though you could possibly add a crossmember in the back to help with that.

I haven't tried yet, but seeing as you put it on, after putting the bed together, it should come off when taking the bed apart

I have a mid-size, Toyota Tacoma, 5ft Bed, and set the straps 18-20" apart. Looking at my system, I could set them further apart if needed. The weight of the cap is not an issue. In fact, my cap doesn't weigh enough to keep the pulley system open to lower it. I usually have to manually release line out of the pulley system to lower it. I imagine the weight of yours would fix that problem. Lifting it is easy too. I think it's an 8-1 ratio and there is more than enough cord. There are some nuances but all-in-all, worth every penny. My buddies are glad too!

It will not. The cap has to come off as the weight of the rack and its load rests on the bed rails.

You could, but it would make it very high. I bought this bed in order to put a trundle pull out under it. I am 5'4" and when I am standing next to the bed, the top of the mattress (without the box spring) come up to mid thigh on me. Any higher and it would be hand to get into.

If you wanted to you could. You would need a screwdriver, but it's not very tall anyways, would probably work for you just fine.

I've lifted 4X12-1/2" to the ceiling, so, I'm sure 5/8"on the wall would be no problem.

Yes, put a piece of tape on one corner and lift up. Comes off fairly easily.

Yes, there is no other way to do it. Hopefully your ceiling is not higher than 8 feet.

Yes it's made to lift a standard 8'x8' cover. Mine is very thick and heavy for winter insulating and it does a great job lifting it. I have had it for 3 years with no issues.

No. You could probably cut off the small piece that you lift up. the entire top piece is part of the snap together structure.

I don't see that it would be a problem....You just need access to the area under the top of the bed gunnels.

Yes, you can raise it to 8" or so from the top, and lower it nearly to the floor. Pretty easy to do, just takes an Allen wrench and 10-15 minutes of time.
