Truck mounted forklift (200) for mounting on the rear of a vehicle. The truck mounted forklift comprises a u-shaped chassis (201) with a linkage (103) lifting assembly mounted thereon. The linkage lifting assembly comprises a carriage (101) slidably mounted on the chassis and a linkage, the linkage comprising a first link (105) connected to the carriage by a pivot joint (107) and a second link (109) connected to the first link by a pivot joint (111). A fork carriage (113) is connected to the other end of the second link. The second link comprises a telescopic link having a plurality of link sections nested together. Cylinders (115,117) are provided to operate the links and the telescopic link. The linkage is more compact than other duplex (i.e. two part) linkages, will not protrude rearwardly increasing the overhang of the forklift and will be able to be mounted and dismounted in a substantially vertical direction, obviating the need for reinforced, heavier tines.
