What's good and where to get it?

Supercheap have a 1.5 tonne crane for $299 which would be OK, anyone know of better :?:

hire it from kennards or coates hire.. only 40 bucks for the day and thats about the most you'll use it for unless you're changing engines every day.

Just an idea mate ;)

I know lots of guys that have bought the supercheap style Hoist and have never had trouble with them. I have seen them used daily in Workshops with no trouble.

More than likely yo wont be pulling out a motor every 4 hours so a cheapy will do what you want and for a long time. The one I use has done numerous motors/gearboxes and trannys, still going strong and never lets anyone down.... its on loan at the moment as per usual !!
