ABSTRACT:
An improved lifting and towing apparatus using a single hydraulic cylinder powering the rotation of a boom to lift a vehicle to be towed or to fold and store the apparatus through the use of a double pivot. The double pivot allows the apparatus to efficiently lift the towed vehicle while minimizing boom overhang when in the folded-stored position, and maximizing ground clearance. The present invention may be used with underlift equipment of various types and sizes, including light and heavy duty equipment, and both wheel and frame-lift systems.
