Re: beaterX project thread

So after sleeping on it I realized I am overcomplicating things immensely. I will only use the trans jack to help get the motor assembly detached from the chassis, then simply use the hoist to lower it to the floor and onto some lower-sitting wheel dollies.

I was worried about rolling the motor out on the trans jack because it'd be higher off the ground and maybe a little tough to balance, but if I get it nice and stable on the wheel dollies then I won't have as much balancing to do while lifting the chassis up and dragging the engine out AND it will end up sitting lower so we won't have to lift the chassis as high.
