“Swivel Lift” Game Carrier For ATV’s, UTV’s, Pickups
“Our new swivel lift game carrier for ATV’s, UTV’s or pickups is designed to lift the load and then swivel it 180 degrees in either direction. It makes loading and unloading heavy objects a much easier job,” says inventor Scott Hintz.

    The game carrier is designed to fit ATV’s, UTV’s or pickups equipped with a 2-in. receiver hitch. It installs with a single quick release pin and can lift loads weighing 250 lbs. up to 48 in. high.

    The unit comes with a 2,000-lb. electric Super Winch with handheld remote control, a 2-in. round vertical lift pole with a pulley at the top that’s free to swivel, and a large carrier basket with a 6-in. high rail on back that’s hinged at both ends. The winch fits into an insert mounted just behind the receiver hitch. A 22-in. long metal track is welded on front of the lift pole, and a 13-in. long pipe sleeve is welded vertically on front of the basket at the center.

    The operator uses the remote to lift the basket to the top of the track, and then continues to raise the basket to the desired height. He then grabs a corner of the basket and rotates it. As the basket rotates, the pulley rotates with it. He then sets the basket on top of the ATV’s rear rack, or inside the bed of the UTV or pickup.

    The basket is available in 2 sizes - 20 by 46 in. and 22 by 50 in.

    A 1,200-lb. hand cranked winch with a 20-ft. nylon strap is also available. It mounts on top of the lift pole and can be used to rotate the basket 360 degrees.

    “Either model lets one person easily load and haul big game and also do farm work,” says Hintz. “Rotating the basket moves the load 4 ft. forward which makes an unbelievable difference on 4-wheelers, because it helps keep the machine from becoming too light on front and tipping back.

    “You can use the carrier on utility vehicles with the tailgate in either the up or down position, by sliding the lift pole into an adapter that installs on the vehicle’s receiver hitch. By pulling a pin you can flip the rail down, which makes it much easier to pull the load off the basket.”

    The unit is designed for use on all ATV’s and on Polaris, Honda and Yahama UTV’s.

    The electric winch model sells for $650 plus S&H; the hand cranked model for $625 plus S&H. Check out a video of the lift at Farmshow.com.
