Abstract: A self-loading wheel lift with automatically powered wheel support members, such as L-arms, for engaging the wheels of a vehicle to be towed. The wheel lift may be rapidly disassembled in the field and converted to alternating towing assemblies such as tool bars employing frame fork attachments, hook ends, slings, pintle hooks, fifth-wheel plates, king pins, etc.

Abstract: A dolly assembly for lifting and supporting a single vehicle tire includes a wheel mounted support frame having a first support bar connected to a second support bar, a slidable member engaged with the second support bar, and a pair of tire lift paddles connected to the slidable member. The slidable member is movable along the second support bar by a lift spindle or a hydraulic lift, which serves to move the pair of tire lift paddles into contact with the vehicle tire, thereby lifting it. An upper housing is attached to the top of the second support bar. The upper housing carries an upper support pad which contacts an upper outside surface of the vehicle tire. An optional securing strap is also provided to further secure the vehicle tire on the dolly assembly.
