Cable reel handling apparatus for a vehicle
 The cable reel handling apparatus is mountable on a truck and operable to separately lift and move a pair of reels from ground supported positions rearwardly of the truck to transfer positions substantially centered relative to the truck rear wheel and axle assembly and between side compartment units that project above the truck bed and extend longitudinally over the length of the bed. A carriage structure is movable on tracks located above the side compartment units between a forward reel transport position and a rearward reel loading position in which the first reel to be transported is directly transferred by vertically movable lift arms mounted at the rear end of a vehicle to an axle supported position on the carriage structure for movement therewith to the forward reel transport position.
