Park Model Crane Install Help

[Patofnaud]

I just this summer replaced my old 2002 trailer with a 33x11.5 park model shingle roof unit.

I removed my porch hardtop roof, I jacked my porch up by about 6 inches, then I put roller skates (actually 6k load car dollies from Amazon) and ripped 1/2 plywood down the middle and made runways for the skates.

The day before unit came in, I rolled the parch with all its walls still attached about 2 feet away from the unit and when it gat installed I rolled it back

Yeah, moving the porch was looked at, but because there's a deck attached to it, an installed patio, and too little space to fit a tow truck, it's not really an option.

I just spoke to another crane company and was told they can get within 1/2", which is the width of the cable. I'm hoping that's the case!

Closure: crane was able to use chokers to remove old trailer and steel beams to install the new one. To come up with room for spreader bar cables on top, we removed a couple feet of the roof since that was going to be replaced anyway.

Cheers!
