So that HF 450 lbs capacity transmission jack , Item #39718-5VGA . will do the job for lifting an engine/tranny combo then . Thanks for the info .

Does anyone have any thoughts on using this HF trannsmission jack .

i used two smaller jacks to lower the engine/tranny combo. one on the front bar, one on the back of the tranny and put it all onto a 2x2 cart i made from a 2x4.

nothing really special required
