This was what I used before getting a hydraulic lift. The engine removal and installation is much easier and quicker than my new hydraulic lift. While I have used this hoist lift for many years without any incident (safety), this is not for everyone to use. It takes special attention and care using it compared to a conventional hydraulic lift.
I have the hoist as a loner as of this writing. This is much better and safer than using floor jacks and jack stands.
