Installing huge tv with drywall lifter ?


As TV’s have become insanely large and heavy, it’s getting harder and harder to find a friend to come help.. I’ve exhausted all my helpers and need a tool move my 85 in Sony (110lbs) by myself. All I need to do is add an Apple TV. Quick and simple and not worth calling a friend again. 

Surely someone has a tool, jack, or lift for quickly lifting a TV on the wall. I was told a Drywall Lift may be what I’m looking for but those sure are big. 

Anyone else had any luck with something like this?

Get someone to help you or multiple people to do it for you.  It's not worth the potential damage.

"Wait until you start dealing with 100 inch And higher."

Yep, I have a 100" that weighs 162 lbs. It’s sitting on it’s stand on top of my AV cabinet rather than being wall-mounted. I had to move it around a few times since it was delivered before my room was finished. I never ask the same neighbor/buddy more than once because if it were me, I’d be saying "geez, again?"

Btw, I used to have a drywall lifter and I agree with the above poster, I don't think it would work and it could be disastrous to try.
