Engine hoists

Post by Grego »

My engine is ready to drop in so now I am in the market for a engine hoist. Anybody have any input on good ones or ones to stay away from. Any made in the good old USA. I will probably own it for ever so I don't want to wish I bought something else. :brickwall:
Thanks, Greg.

I like the kind that the legs are removable for storage. If I was using it every week I wouldn't want that, but since I only use it seldom its nice to be able to remove the legs for storage.

Just purchased a Bluebird Kaydee 1500 from a rental house that is selling some of there old stock off. $150.00 :banana:
Well used, and has many engines pulled under it's belt. this thing breaks down into 6 different pieces in a matter of minutes for out of the way storage, and best of all, Made In The USA! Heavy duty unit.
