I enlisted the help of three guys from the nieghborhood to help me lift my 911 motor from the stand, to the back of my truck - a grand total of maybe 16 inches from point A to point B. I was simply going to leave the yoke on the motor, undo the bolt that keeps the yoke from rotating in the the stand, slide the yoke/motor off of the stand an into the back of the truck. There is not really any lifting - just holding up!
Do you think 4 guys can do this weight wize? I was able to lift a type 4 motor without heads (but with the crank and pistons still installed) by myself. I dont have any idea how much a fully dressed (carbs/fan/etc) 911 motor weighs. This is what I get for forgetting to bring the hoist home last night..... |
