Bought my 1st TC (8') in '68. Next year went with a 9 1/2' footer. Then a 4280 lb 10' 6" very heavy unit with 2' X 3" walls in the mid '70s. All three were loaded with a wheeled A frame with a electric chain winch...double drop spreader bar. All three were picked up from the sides just like the vid.
At home I used a A frame with the wheels removed...same type winch...spreader bar to load and unload the truck campers off my work trucks.
We used the spreader bar with a extendable boom winch truck on construction work sites.
I'm sure some on here are old enough to have used the old cable lifts. They lifted the TC the same way from the sidewalls.
