now what do I do with the hydraulic motorcycle carrier

[luberhill]

Ok bought the 2013 Winnebago 25 he class A Itasca
It has a very nice heavy duty hydraulic carrier on the rear that I have no use for.. part of it is welded to the frame but it has dual receivers so it can be removed
Very heavy duty and holds a full size motorcycle or 4 wheeler etc

I see you're in Syracuse. Feel free to PM me if you need any help removing it. I'm in Syracuse on a somewhat regular basis.

Well,
That's fine IF, you have the clearance at all angles to manipulate a cut-off wheel and motor. There's nothing wrong with using a torch, IF you know what you're doing. Of course the cut would be cleaner with a cut-off wheel.

This SPECIFICALLY why I advise to install any M/C lift by BOLTING it on. That way, there's no need for any CUTTING when it comes time to remove it. And, it's just as strong. Oh well, I'm sure the OP will deal with it.

Keep the Blue Ox tow bar-- you will probably eventually want to pull a car with you.

The buyer of the lift would have to purchase one separately.
If it is an overbilt, find out from the previous owner when he purchased it.
If it is an older design, it had some problems. That design got sold to Blue Ox I believe.
Hopefully it’s fairly new, within the last couple years, which is a much better design.

Overbilt’s are not hydraulic. It is cable driven. They hold 800 lbs. Different racks are required to carry a quad or golf cart. Oh, btw, waaay too much weight for the back of a 25 foot Class A.

Who has a 25 ft A ?? They only weigh 250 pounds

I think you need a few more 'AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA' is waaay.

Don't worry about the needing a replacement receiver. Not hard to replace or to have one made. The hardest part of selling it is if it needs to be shipped. Size and weight are the issue.

I THINK its this one but ill let you know, I know he said you can tow a car also there is like 3 receivers...one part of the bracket is welded right to the frame so you would probably have to buy another.
Ill call the manufacturer tomorrow and ask him
I can tell you this thing is HEAVY duty, he had his big road bike on it but only used it a few times since installed

Those things cost $$$! Figure out how much it cost new and sell it on Craigslist for 1/2 that amount. I wouldn't do other online or eBay because there is no way n you are shipping that thing. Local sale only.

Yep! Craigslist or EBAY

Make sure you take good pics and post them in your ad. If you have it, make sure you post the make, model, price, and weight capacity. Chances are your phone/email will ring off the hook. The better you describe it, the less time you'll spend with lookieloos.
