Re: Engine stands

I bought this one from the school AG shop when the kid that made it didn't pay for it. Even for the cost of materials in 1990 it wasn't cheap though. I've been going to change the head to one that is more like standard engine stand heads for years but haven't. I don't really need to use it so it sits out back for now. Thick wall 3-1/2 inch square tubing. I went back out and measured. The thing weighs about 80 lbs.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
