What's the verdict on using a motorcycle lift for engine removal/install?
Thinking the Harbour Fright econo-version. I know there has been some discussion pro/con on this but I never caught the bottom line. Info please. Allen |

The only problem with the motorcycle jack is you cant lower the engine all the way down with the trans attached! I like the rolling casters on 2x4's high enough to slide the jack under and lower the engine onto it.
The motorcycle jack works fine though! $.02 |
