    Engine Crane...

    Is there anywhere cheaper than ebay that anyone knows?

    Theyre there for about £150 delivered.

    Is that about as cheap as theyll be?

    I got a clarke one from machine mart a few years ago, one of the cheapest ones, I think it was only about £70 and has been great.
    I have used it a couple of times but lent it to one of my mates and he has used it to get engines out of everything. Another friend also used it builing a westfield.
    It folds up when your not using it and comes boxed when you buy it so it fits in the car.
    Weighs about 70kg, so you need a couple of you to lift it
