What do y'all use for engine stands??? / bracket??? I like the one from VW alley but can't seem to find any source. Seen some nice ones for $600 bucks but that's not in the budget. The 2 eared ones don't seem they would provide enough support. Thanks for the help.

QUOTE(mepstein @ Oct 11 2023, 02:55 PM)  We have five of these and I just ordered 3 more. @mepstein I'm getting ready to drop the engine in my 930 and need a stand and yoke. What is it you're ordering? Also you mentioned on another thread about a HF lift to drop the engine with. I see a couple of motorcycle lifts. Is that what you were referring to? |
