Auto Dollies

Merrick machine dollys-----and I believe they have a few options as far as wheels and bracketry.

Have a set of the Harbor Freight dollies. Like is said, lube the wheels occasionally, they work fine. Agree on the line about HF, some stuff is fine, other things, stay away from, use your judgement as to which is which. I was once once asked by a clerk why I wouldn't "purchase a warranty" on their products? Told him it was pretty simple, in most cases, the products were cheap enough, if they broke, I'd throw them in the scrap pile and come get another one! Has worked well for me, others mileage may vary.

I have the HF ones and they do fine. Look in Drag Racing Action HF normally has a fullpage add with lots of coupons.

Have had the Harbor Freight set for years and they work fine.

As a side note they make good furniture movers too, just keep them clean.

As another side note, the furniture dolleys that HF sells work good for storing and
moving engine blocks/short blocks.

Followup - I found a coupon in a Car Craft Mag and bought a pair from Harbor Freight for $39.99 a set. 50% off. I will try them later today. Thanks for the help. Dyno
