Does anybody know where I can rent a engine hoist? Or does anyone have one that I could borrow?

wow 150…thats seems cheap!
Hard to tell how long I would need it. I have to pull my engine to see if my pressure plate is bad or the fork is bent. So once I pull the engine it would have to sit till the parts that I needed got in. I’m guesing maybe a week and a half at the most.trying to plan doing this next Tuesday.
But if they are only 150 then I might just buy one.

Those $150 hoists are cheap, Chinese, crudely made, heavy as fuck and they work just fine…

i rented one from Grand Rental Station on Babcock Blvd (bottom of Cemetary Ln) for 30 bucks over a weekend. Also, Advance Auto Parts have engine stands for like 40 bucks. You could rent the hoist, buy a stand, put it on that till you’re ready to put the motor back in and rent it again. Better than storing an engine hoist that gets used rarely (they’re pretty big compared to a stand)
