I just bought Jake Raby's Type 4 rebuild video. I'm not sure if I'm going to need to rebuild my engine, but guessing that I probably will at some point. Princess Auto (Canada's Harbor Freight) has a couple of engine stands, one of which (the 1,250lb) is going on 50% off next week. Which one of these would be the better one to get (the 1,000lb will likely go on 50% sale before I would need it, so I can wait)? It looks to me like the 1,000 might be easier to work on because the legs wouldn't be in the way of where one would be standing (please see the links below).
Also, I know nothing about these matters, so will the yoke that is needed for the VW engines work on these stands? http://www.princessauto.com/pal/product/42...lb-Engine-Stand http://www.princessauto.com/pal/product/42...lb-Engine-Stand TIA |
