jbird72 Posted June 5 Posted June 5 I'm gonna change the name of this, but remember, it started with a simple oil pump or oil PAN. Well. Now let's start now, I gotta pull the motor it's a good thing because I believe the fly wheel is chipped in certain spots. Anyway, look at the conundrum, I have now dont reach. Fml now gotta go rent one prolly 1 Quote
Dtret Posted June 5 Posted June 5 There’s another post on the site where someone made an extension. I believe 2x2 square stock. Or they took the existing one off and put a longer one in place of it. If you extend it make sure it goes far into the original lift. 2 Quote
Dtret Posted June 5 Posted June 5 Another 30-40-50 bolts and you can have that core support sitting on the ground. Easy peasy. No not really, just messing around. 3 Quote

Leghome Posted June 5 Posted June 5 be carefull about makeing the boom longer without makeingthe legs longer will get heavy and tip over. Voice of experience almost, we saw the lift raising and dropped the motor back down before a diaster happened 5 Quote
