Garvee Forklift Jib Boom Crane 6000LB Capacity - Adjustable Heavy-Duty Steel Fork Mounted Hooks for Warehouse Material Handling

This attachment comes in three boxes and you immediately see why when you assemble it – it’s a serious 370+ pound piece of equipment. The welds are clean, the yellow paint is even, and all the adjustment points line up nicely. We use it in a warehouse to lift machinery and awkward pallets that are too long for standard forks. The adjustable boom angle and length give us the reach we need. Only downside is the weight makes it a two‑person job to install the first time, but that’s expected at this capacity.

The design of the fork pockets and clamp system is excellent. We just slide the jib over our 48" forks, tighten the thumb screws until snug, and it does not move even when handling heavy loads. The two hooks give us flexibility: one closer in for heavier lifts and one further out when we need the reach but less capacity. For a busy warehouse that needs occasional crane capability without buying a full overhead crane, this is a great solution.

We primarily use this jib boom for HVAC units and small machinery installs. The 6000 lb capacity is more than enough for our typical loads, and the boom feels very stable when properly mounted. I like that the product is clearly intended for professional construction/industrial work – the steel thickness, pins, and hooks all reflect that. If you follow the load chart and basic safety rules, it’s a very confidence‑inspiring attachment.

What sold me on this jib is how adjustable it is. You can change the boom length and the lifting angle, which has let us reach over obstacles and place loads in locations an ordinary forklift can’t access. We’ve used it in a fabrication shop and outside on a construction site without issues. It does take a bit of time to get familiar with the different settings, but once you learn your preferred positions, it speeds up a lot of jobs.
