New cherry picker recommendations

[BrightonK5]

I'm in need for a cherry picker to pull my SBC. I Wouldn't use it very often and maybe not at all once I finish my blazer. I've looked for a used one Craigslist but not many choices. I would like to stay under $300. Any recommendations on any new ones?

I've had one for years with no problems.
Mine doesn't fold so kind of a problem to store.

The HF 2-ton unit looks like it would be more than adequate for your needs. Look online for a 20% off coupon.

You might also check your local parts store. I picked up a 2 ton foldable from Advance Auto a few years ago for $150. Works good and have loaned it out to buddies several times. Only issue is the weight. Takes two to get it loaded if you have to put it in a truck or trailer.

I also have one that I bought from Advance Auto. It cost me a little more then the $150 the guy paid for his but still it was money well spent. I've used it a lot and couldn't do without it.

HF is the way to go here. $129 on sale is the price I have always seen.

I remember borrowing my buddy's harbor freight and I could load it and unload it myself.
I just bought a 2 year old used Duralast and that thing took two of us to load and it was still a strain.

I waited and found an engine hoist and an engine stand that a guy had used once and wanted to get rid of for $75! Patience.

couple years back, i used the coupons for Northern Tool...got a nice deal with the engine leveler included.
