I am considering buying a B&W patriot fifth wheel hitch and when it comes time to remove it from the truck bed can it be lifted by one person.
I =used= to be able to handle my Companion pretty easily, but age, injury and sitting on my tuchis in an office for a lot of years, made it easier to get a cheap engine hoist to lift it out all in one piece. I =can= do it, if necessary, but why take the chance of aggravating things? A lot of people use something similar, or, if you have rafters or overhead beams, a come-along, or chain/cable hoist (electric or manual) can be used. Get a cheap furniture dolly to set it on, and you can roll it around to wherever you need it. You won't regret getting a B&W product.
