I've always want to have both a cherry picker and a gantry lift to swap out the 4.3 and a second sub frame for 383 V8 to put it back in the Ole Yellar van.I've had the cherry picker all along and tonight I bought this:
What that means is while I'll use the cherry picker to lower the sub frame,4.3 engine,and tranny,I will be lifting the van by a strap on the rad core support which means I can freely roll the sub frame from the van.The sub frame for the 383 set-up which is the second one I have is going to the sand blaster to be first cleaned up and then have the pipe lift welded to it.Pix's to follow.
