Our Mighty Hauler Experience
We wanted a HydraLift to carry our golf cart. But after investigating it we discovered that our cart weighs too much.
So our very reliable repair shop (handles many of the NASCAR rigs) did some research and suggested a Mighty Hauler. We looked at it online, talked to the manufacturer extensively, and ultimately ordered a unit.
I was a little distrustful because the manufacturer has a no returns policy. We questioned them extensively about tying the golf cart down and were assured there were lots of places -- no worries. Even though the photos online didn't show many tie down areas.
The unit arrived and our repair shop spent countless hours installing it. If you have a Prevost, no worries. But our Country Coach presented challenges. It was a very costly installation.
We ordered the ramps along with the unit. If you purchase a Mighty Hauler, DO NOT BUY THEIR RAMPS! They are very narrow and heavy. They are not long enough. The brackets supplied to mount them are unusable unless you want to crawl under the unit.
We have a Club Car Precedent with a back seat and footrest. Ramps are so steep that the cart can't be loaded.
We subsequently purchased longer aluminum ramps. Wish we had saved the $250 or so that Mighty Hauler charged for their ramps.
The paint finish on the entire unit is a joke. It's so thin and flakes off easily. The repair shop had to repaint a lot just getting it installed.
Unit has been installed on our moho for about 6 weeks now and has many rusted areas.
We will eventually have the entire unit sprayed with whatever is used for bedliners.
Our new 10' ramps arrived yesterday, but we haven't had time to see if they are long enough to load the cart.
If not, we will have to have the back of the cart reworked.
If they are, next step is to figure out how to tie down the cart. That will be an experience because on the side next to the moho there are only two U-shaped handles to tie to and they don't seem to be in the right place.
Will post later and let you all know the outcome.
