I was thinking about getting one of these to help in engine removal. I have a 2.7 six.
Has anyone use these? Or do you think it woul be a waste of money.

Thanks for any input

I found this one to be very nice for my engine drop. The handle comes off and it is very solid. Easy down and easy up right into place. I found the transmission jack to be too wobbly. And the motorcycle lift too small of a base and hard to get under the car. Though it was lower to the floor when fully down.

Lift range: 9" to 27-1/4"

I love it! Not only do I use it to remove and install the engine, but also to jack up the car. Specially the front end. I can jack up the front wheels at the same time by the tow hook. It's on sale too right now.
