Which Engine crane??

[Dino]

I have done a fair few engine swaps, gearbox changes etc and keep borrowing my friends engine crane.

He is using it more and more these days, so I have decided to bite the bullet and buy one myself.

The issue is which ones do I go For?

I have a budget of £200 Tops, but this needs to include, chains, hooks and an adjustable load leveller.

It will be used a few times a year, maybe more.

So what are peoples recommendations from experience and what should I avoid?

Cheers beforehand.

All the people I know who have them hardly use them but are constantly asked to borrow them. I'd keep on borrowing if you're only gonna use it a few times a year. The rest of the time it'll just be taking up space.

IMHO block & tackle fitted to you garage roof is the best, if your roof can take it that is!
That is what i use anyway!

This is very true!
You can rent them from hire shop's too for a very good rate!
