Engine Hoists

Many people (myself included) own Harbor Freight engine hoists and
their "top of the line" fold up unit sells for around $250. But also look
at Northern Industries or just google to find other brands. I'm sure you
will find stuff from $150 to $1000 depending on quality, etc.

I went the cheap route and found a bolt together engine hoist on craigs-
list minus the ram for $40, then a new ram from HF on sale for $40.
It works fine on my concrete garage and RV parking pad. probably
would not work too well on gravel or grass/dirt.
