ABSTRACT:
A lifting and tilting device for facilitating removal, repair and re-installation of large commercial and recreational vehicle wheels comprising a frame supported by wheels, a fork supporting tines, and a hydraulic jack interposed between the frame and the fork. The fork, in addition, includes a kicker. As one actuates the jack, the fork is vertically raised from a wheel receiving position to a predetermined height. Once the fork reaches this predetermined height, the kicker, upon further actuation of the jack, operates to tilt the fork and tines upwardly and outwardly to move the wheel carried thereon into an inclined work position.
