Abstract: The disclosure describes a lifting system for use with a hoist, comprising of at least one structural frame rail, attached to middle portions of cross members on the opposite ends of the frame rail, such that the two cross members are co-planar. Each end of the cross member is attached to an attachment assembly. The attachment assembly comprises of an extension link and a detachable pin member assembly. On end of extension link is attached to the cross member and the other end is provisioned to receive the pin member assembly. A lifting lug assembly is structured and arranged at the center of the frame rail towards the upper face of the rail, to connect an external hoist for lifting in vertical direction. The lifting system as described above provides an easy lifting mechanism for heavy objects, such as an alternator of the electric drive trucks.
