Hello TMF

I am on the look out for a engine hoist as I am fed up of dragging engines along the floor.

I am based in Kent and can collect from any surrounding areas.

Old aincent looking things are welcome here!

Thanks

You can hire them from places on eBay for a tenner a day if that helps?

hi,

i have a 2 tonne one, its brand new literally used for long enough to lift an engine and drop the gearbox off it.

however i am a long way away sorry, peterborough, pe8

£150.00

my project ended before it began sadly so now this is surplus.............shame because as with everything, costs a shed load to buy and is worth half its brand new price one out the box

Yeah, its not a bad rate really.

How ever I am removing 3 to 4 engines a month and my home made hoist has given up the ghost. Hire costs on that would be a killer. :lol:

Hello Neil.

Thanks a lot for the offer, how ever Peterborough is a fair distance from me. If nothing comes up closer though I will be in contact.

Strange thing is most of the hoists I am spotting are all up your end of the country!
