Engine hoist + stand?

Hi gentlemen,

Those of you with experience, can you recommend an engine hoist as well as a stand that doesn't cost an arm and a leg? I'm trying to work on a V6 off of 4x4s in my home garage and it's not cutting it. Time to invest in some equipment.

Thank you!

Look on kijiji, lots of people buy those and only use them once.

For the hoist, chose one with articulated legs, you’ll save precious space in your garage while not used

I recommend buying this type of stand, with the base like a "U":

Instead of this cheaper style:

The U-style base is much more stable when spinning a heavy motor around, trying to get stuck bolts out, etc...


I have 3 of the U-style stands, if you're west on Mtl I can sell you one.

that's not a hoist though...

what I did, since I knew I was going to use it just once... I bought it at canadian tire, did what I needed to do, and brought it back when I was done. the only downside is you have to be extra careful not to scratch it or anything, but cost was 2 trips to canadian tire! :p

like many said, it's not something you use regularly...
 
stand a trois pattes comme ca c'est fiable lol
This guys as more balls then me....je ferais pas ça....

The guy is looking for a hoist AND stand. :)


FWIW, tool rental places usually have hoists to rent. What's nice is that they usually have the really good/expensive ones, not cheap china junk. It's your best option IMO for a one-time use.

Le moteur est aussi tenu par des chaînes avec la chèvre à moteur.
