    I got mine from a cheap tools importer place. $200 for the crane and $65 for the better 560kg engine stand.

    Solid steel and quality construction, they are perfect for me and have moved a few engines already.

    For engine stand, if its for the 4AGE - just get an el-cheapo special from Supercheap :2thumbs: they arent a heavy engine! I've been using one of the cheap arse ones for years, you only need to worry about it if you have a straight 6 or something long on it. I've had Ford Windsor V8's, complete RB30's and an old red 202 on my cheap crappy engine stand and its still going strong! Although it has a tendency to want to tip over when your moving it with the straight 6's!

    go down to supercheap, ive sold heaps of cranes/ stands and never had anyone come back complaining that they were to weak or crap, engine crane is about $300 but normal goes on specail every once and a while, there are 2 engine stands ones a 400kg ish and the other is 560kg, think the $560 one is $150 or so the 400kg one is about $100.

    i got the smaller one from supercheap, like 80$

    seems to go alright

    mate had the same one, had a CA18 on there for ages, no problems

    also used a supercheap engine crane a fair bit, like 200$? i think bahnugget paid for it, no dramas at all with 4ac/CA18's
