The cart I have is like the one at Northern except the color. Cummins now has it on their web site. http://www.cumminstools.com/browse.cfm/4,955.html I shortened the foot pedal about 4 inches. Still has enough leverage to lift heavy sets. The one I got from Harbor Freight is smaller and more maneuverable, I take it on the truck to pickup sets. The larger one from Cummins handles larger loads and works smoother.
