T-Bar Mount: Connect Two Pool Service Carts to Your Truck at the Same Time
The T-Bar Mount is designed for pool
service professionals who wish to connect tow service carts to their
truck at the same time. The T-Bar mount was created by T.Dula Inc.,
in order to make it easy to mount two service carts to your truck.
The T-Bar is quick and easy to install and is also less expensive
than having two receivers welded onto your truck frame.
The T-Bar mount can be ordered directly
from T.Dula Inc and it runs around the $250 price range. It is less
expensive than leaving your truck all day at the welder to have two
receivers welded on. All you need is a standard Class III Receiver
mounted to the bottom of your truck.

The anti-wobble bolt is pretty
effective, I also had my welder shimmy a piece of metal into the
Receiver to help make it even more stable. I also have a piece of
wood taped on between the T-Bar Mount and my truck bumper to
eliminate all wobble. Wobble is bad for the carts as it will wear
down the hitch over time. You can even have your welder install an anti-wobble bolt similar to the ones that come on T-Bar Mount to your Receiver.

There are several companies that make service carts but I think T.Dula is the best. My last service cart was from them and it lasted almost 20 years. The hitch is also superior and built to last virtually forever. I also use a Power Vac on my pool route and the T-Bar Mount is perfect for it also. So no matter the situation I have both my Service Cart with my manual vacuum and my Power Vac on my truck at all times.
If you are serious about servicing
pools I highly recommend a service cart. Once you get one you will
wonder how you survived without one. It just makes your day that much
easier. And the T-Bar Mount is the best way to mount your service
carts.
A bit about my service truck and how
the T-Bar mount is fairing after about 8 months now. My truck is a
2005 Nissan Frontier with a good towing capacity and a maximum hitch
tongue weight of 800 lbs. With the T-Bar mount and two carts I would
say the total weight is around 200 lbs. So mounting the two carts is
no strain at all on the frame of my truck
.
The T-Bar Mount has held up extremely
well as I park my truck outside and I have already had a couple of
chemicals spilled in it. This thing is well made and virtually
indestructible. With that said, if you have a very small service
truck, check with the manufacturer to see if you can safely mount two
carts to the back with the T-Bar Mount as every truck is different.
Also, since every truck has a different
height from the receiver to ground, you may need to have a custom
shanks made in order to mount your service cart. The Power Vac cart
has a very adjustable hitch so that was not an issue. T.Dula does
make a shank for their service cart and in my case it was almost the
perfect height so that I could just role the service cart up to the
hitch without having to lift it. I go over this in more detail in
the video I filmed on the service cart.
