I tried to copy and paste the link multiple times but it's not working the way it used to.  :banghead:  :dunno: :clueless:
It shows in the preview but not after I post it.

No need to go any further, I would just roll that out in the driveway and let it run all day Sundays

I do love racking up the video and casting it to my big screen and cranking the volume on the surround sound.  :bigsmile:

Put my new HF Engine Hoist together. Got the engine on the hoist so I can remove the wood shipping braces. Think I will have to change the Pan and Pickup first. Also plan to mod the Passenger Biscuit Mount. If I move the mount to the rear on the QA1 K-Member and cut down the mount itself to shorten it towards the rear, I'll have more room for the dipstick and Oil Filter Adapter and not have to cut down the rubber biscuit.
It got dark and I'm outdoors so more pictures tomorrow.

Will be putting the 8-3/4 together tomorrow. Can be seen in the background.

Rear end with the Calipers and Rotors.
I went with the Jeep Grand Cherokee Disc Brakes for the incorporated Drum E-Brakes and the common replacement parts.
Same as Ferd Exploder...
Should work well on our +/- 3000 lb. Barracuda if they worked on 4130 lb. Grand Cherokees.

Its a engine lift for a new gen hemi; basically like the old 4BBL plate where you hook the hoist to. I think I would make one before I bought one though.

How's this? The straps are rated for 6400 lbs. each. just need to lift it high enough to set it on my K-Member on the K-Member stand.
Going to lower the car onto it.

Yeah, that works. I was just passing it on in case it was something you thought interesting.

Thanks Mike.
Got my curiosity so I searched it. Couldn't find any pictures of it lifting or attached to an engine. Can't picture it.
Oh well, will spend that $ on something else.  :money:  :bigsmile:

Several pictures here

You probably dont need it since you are installing the engine on the K member and then lowering the car onto it all. However if you were dropping the engine in from the top this would be very handy.
