Anyone local to me (07869) have a engine hoist I can borrow and maybe your help to get my 4 banger out? Please let me know, you can PM me or email me at

Thanks!

tom's little buddy the birdie stopped in and said no you can't borrow it lol lol

the engine hoist and an engine stand are two things on my list of things to get but i have no garage to store them in so it makes it kind of hard lol lol.

Just you should just buy one, i think i saw one in harbor freight for like 100 bucks or something like that.

its a shame we had to rip down that huge shed we had, that would have made a nice place to store stuff/ rebuild engines and what not

well why of course i have a machine shop, its just not in my shed hahahaha
but i do have access to a 7ft lathe (mmmmmm its amazing its one of the coolest things i've ever saw) milling machines yadda yadda yadda, plus all of the tooling. Working at the bar is good for one thing, making friends that work with there hands all day.

Last time I reneted a steering wheel puller... basically I bought it, then brought it back and got all my money back. THats like there tool rental program. Kinda weird... so I would think either free or no more then $20.

They are about $150 on credit card. Use the hoist for a few days, money is back.
