I am looking for engine stand options.
So the P201 (engine yoke) shaft diameter is 60mm and I am here to see if anybody knows of engine stand options. In the past, I worked with custom made stands and on some occasions I worked with the flimsy Harbor freight version. Those I'd like to exclude... What I'm looking for are engine stands, preferably in black, grey or silver, two legs, and a a 60mm/2 3/8" - 2 1/2" yoke receiver. Any help is appreciated. Show me what you got! |

On the samba there's a guy that makes beefed up 3 and 4 arm versions.
All but one of my adapters are shop built. I have a couple of the HF cheap 600lb stands but I only use them for T1 and T4. I almost tipped over a /6 on one of these stands. I have a repro P201 I think made by SIR and I use the Princess Auto 2000lbs folding legs 6 wheel stand, harbor freight likely sells the same stand. I have two of these stands. Only issue is the engine half doesn't sit level, it sits nose high, so I ended up cutting and bending the stands main tube just below the receiver. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) Folds for storage and my 660lb lift table cart fit's between the legs. I can fully kit out a 996 engine with exhaust, which is 500lbs and almost 6 foot wide and I can roll it around with ease. https://www.princessauto.com/en/detail/2-00...and/A-p8668030e I bought mine on sale for $135. |
