Hi all,
Looking for engine yoke for my 914 engine. Before I buy one from fleabay I thought I would check if anyone has one for sale.
Thanks,
Dave

I have the same yoke--VW Alley in Ashland, Oregon--Cost about $121--well worth the value.

I contacted them and they haven't reopened yet. Any other sources?
TIA

Still need one. The vendor on the Samba is in the process of moving locations and isn't selling any for the time being. Anyone have one?

Make sure you match the yoke tube to the diameter on the engine stand. I contacted the samba guy several months ago and he said it fits all harbor freight type stands. I have a 750 pound stand that looks like the HF stand, mine is from Napa. I am sure they are all made in the same factory. Mine is a 2 inch diameter.

The tube he uses is 2 3/8 diameter, which is what is used on the 1000 lb stands, not the 750 stands. The 2 ton stands are even bigger. I measured the ones in HF and found the same results.

Be warned. I am going to buy one also when he starts shipping again. I had to buy another used stand just to get ready to buy his mount.
