  • Cherry Picker and/or Engine Stand?

    Anyone have one I could borrow for a few months? Jonny mentioned he has a cherry picker I can borrow from him, didn't ask how long, but I just wanted to keep my options open. We're picking up the engine and trans tonight and we're not entirely sure how we're going to unload it out of the Dakota at this point.

    You should just buy a engine stand. They are fairly cheap. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...CategoryID=516

    Engine hoists aren't really to bad either.

      Could probably rent 1 for pretty cheap, or just buy one.

          Brian, why don't you leave the big mean old heavy Keg in the back of the truck, and when Ben and I get there, we'll unload it for you. lol

          As far as an engine hoist goes, I would check Craigslist for a deal. . .

                I have a hoist you can borrow.... my stand is being used, but you can pick on up at harbor frieght in Pontiac for like $60 or less on craigslist. Let me know if you need it. I'm near Pine Knob.
