My HYDRAULIC engine puller (picture)
I wonder how many engines have been pulled out of corvettes with their tractor? The manual puller became too unstable so we attached a come along to the lift on my tractor but it started slipping under the weight. So a large chain and a 70 horse tractor EASED the BB right out. No "you might be a redneck" wise crack please!!!!!

I can't see anything red neck about it! The hydraulics will leak down on farm tractors tho so you have to be careful and not leave it hanging too long. What is that saying about mother of necessity or something like that! Way to go!

Actually with a bit of string and a tractor, one could pull a loose tooth.

The has got to be the most expensive cherry picker ever. YOu wouldn't even have to undo the motor mounts, You could just yank the sucker right out.
Seriously that is about as stable a hoist as you could possibley find.
I used a front end loader a long time ago.
