I used my uncles tractor with forks. It wasn't too bad I just screwed some 2xs to the posts and set it up there and used some wood screws to hold it in place.
You could use some scaffolding to do the same thing with and muscle it up there in stages.
That makes sense. I also thought about renting one of these for a day.

That should work but know its forks aren't that wide and make sure you have level/solid ground for it to sit on. May want to use two - one for each end.

I built a 20x22 pergola a couple years ago. 8x8 posts, 6x10 beams across posts with 4x6 on top of that. Pressure treated pine (heavy, heavy)
Got everything lifted with a friend/neighbor and a hand forklift. Its work but more than doable!
Good luck friend and great design!
