anyone have an engine stand that i could borrow for a day this week???

i'm doing the retensioning of my head bolts and i'm thinking it would be so much easier if i had the engine on a stand instead of having to piss fart aroudn with it on the crane....

anyone able to help me out here? i'll come pick it up, and beer can be involved :D

I'm fairly sure they can be purchased for $50 from most of your auto shops... have a look online.

indeedy bossman, i got a 200kg one for $55 from a tools/jacks/engine crane shop thingy off atherton road in oakleigh. mines had constant use for the last month and a half and its so much easier to work on the engine like that.

btw youd be more than welcome to borrow mine if my flippin engine didnt permanently live on the damn thing... :rolleyes:

thanks boys.

I bought an engine crane cos i could get one relatively cheap and it's been needed a few times in the last few months :P

might as well grab a stand too.... money is tight though
