Re: "offroad" cherry picker?
Put the cherry picker in the bed of another pickup with some plates under the wheels to distribute the load on the bed floor. You can actually get a lot done this way if your hoist can dip low enough from the bed height. I've seen a few guys mod a HF engine hoist to bolt into a trailer hitch mount too!

Re: "offroad" cherry picker?
You might consider an A-frame like wrecking yards have. They use regular-size tires, so they can deal with some pretty uneven ground.
