Allan Parkhurst Posted December 3, 2006 Report Posted December 3, 2006 I want to remove my engine from the B1B 1949 and want to put it on an engine stand. Does anyone have a drawing or suggestion so i can have it ready before i pull the engine. Allan Quote
Young Ed Posted December 4, 2006 Report Posted December 4, 2006 Allan are you looking for a stand or more of a cart for storage? The stands you can buy will work just fine on a flathead. Because of the length get one with the H shaped feet. The T shaped feet ones can tip-we tipped a /6 on one of those last summer. Quote
Allan Parkhurst Posted December 4, 2006 Author Report Posted December 4, 2006 I want to work on engine and also store it. I will try to find the H type stand, thanks for the suggestion. Allan Quote
greg g Posted December 4, 2006 Report Posted December 4, 2006 Harbor Freight or Northern Tool. get on of at least 1000 lb capacity and makesure the front casters are at least 10 inches apart. I have this one from Harbor freight and it worked well about 50 bucks less on sale. Quote
Allan Parkhurst Posted December 4, 2006 Author Report Posted December 4, 2006 Thanks Greg I will buy one today. Quote
Young Ed Posted December 4, 2006 Report Posted December 4, 2006 Allan be prepared for a slight puzzle. The directions with our harbor freight one were horrible. Also the bolts for the fixed wheels in the back were too short so the wheels wouldn't turn! Other then that it seems like it will be just fine. Quote
