Engine replacement on ground advice

[Cosmo Kramer]

I just did this on a lift. My lift points are 49" off the ground right now, and my cart is 23" high and I had about 2" to spare getting it out. So you need to get the lift points 24" off the ground plus the height of whatever cart you are going to use minimum.

I would get a set of 6 ton jack stands, most go to about 24", and for additional clearance put a piece of 2x6 underneath them. Try and find a cart with low pro wheels.

You need the 6 tons, cuz otherwise your a few inches short. Sucks but real.
