Anyone developed a good system or something to lift big keg into their keezer?

Was thinking either some pulley system or a hydronic lift of some sort?
Anyone ever done something like this?
 
How about using a light chain hoist or a winch for stretching chain link fencing?
 
My dad just picked up a hoist from Harbor Freight to lift his 5th wheel hitch out of his truck bed. He mounted it up in his garage. If you have your setup some place where you could mount something in the ceiling I bet you could do the same and then just lift the keg up and into the chest freezer pretty easy.
 
pump the beer into the keg already in place for fermenting. Push it back out of the finished fermenter with co2 into your serving vessel(s). I REALLY try not to lift more than 5 gallons of beer.

I only move my fermentors when they're empty.

Cheers.
