there is one I am watching going through the repocast auction this Thursday. Thought it would be handy for us to have at Mikes. Until I get my barn and hoist anyway.

I do have one for on the ground that goes pretty high. Andrew has it.

i am trying to talk myself into (or out of, not sure yet) changing my exhaust manifold(s), and jacking up the engine is how you get the passenger side out.

speaking of which, here is one of my thoughts:

Why not just use a cherry picker and lift up the engine with that?

Man there has been no one in here. Looks like maybe one night next week I will be able to work on the truck. Going to be in Detroit this weekend and up north the next.

yeah I have been swamped with stuff and have not got to work on the truck in a while.

on the positive side though got my house sold and a new one bought with a 40x60 pole barn. with 2 18ft doors no less. so now i am in the market for a lift.
