Engine Drop
 
I know this topic has been covered in excruciating detail, but this is a quick question/answer I'm sure... Has anyone used the OTC 2-ton engine crane to do the drop, and by this I mean does it have a high enough reach? It negates the need for teetering the engine on a jack and then transferring to a dolly. The only thing I think might be problematic is the arm of the crane interfering with the rear bumper when it gets low. Thanks

It won't go low enough to set the engine on the ground because the arm needs to be right on top of the engine or it is to close to the the speaker shelf sheet metal. Using a jack works fine and is easy if you have a buddy helping.

Thanks, I figured that would be an issue...
