Default Re: WANT TO BUY BEST & SAFE ENGINE HOIST

Do you have a harbor freight in your area?http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/cta...emnumber=46766
As far as engine pulling tips.............make sure everything is unhooked, then unhook the stuff you forgot as you bring the engine out. Take your time, be patient, be safe and dont drop the engine thru your windshield or ram it thru the radiator Oh, p.s. dont forget to put a floor jack under trans. pan and raise it up as high as possible.

Default Re: WANT TO BUY BEST & SAFE ENGINE HOIST

Just a couple of tips. Sixystyle is right. Jack up the trans all the way. Make sure when the hoist is over the engine that the 4 chains coming down dont twist(one to each corner of the block). This will make it a little harder if they twist. A few nuts and bolts and some connectors and out it comes. Dont forget to mark your nuts on the flywheel so when installing the motor everything lines up. There are lots of great books out there on mustang engine overhauls. They will give you a step by step instructions on pulling out the motor. Hope this helps
