    In the interim I use mine so often that it is still right where you left it if you need it again.

    Yeah I can see how that could come in handy on so many jobs.

    I appreciate you, Paul 🙏

    David, it made dropping the fuel tank on my TJ a breeze. I also did a clutch on my buddy's Scion xB which is a task I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy

    TJ needs a clutch job now too. I have the parts, I'm considering ponying up to have a shop do it. Don't know when I'll have time to do it myself

    Yeah looking at that it would probably help with all kinds of chores, even swapping axles. Which I've done plenty of times on various rigs. And will be doing again in the near future.
    I have to say it's always something we need to work on. Keeps me going though.

    After borrowing Paul's a couple times, I eventually just bought the HF one as well...its super useful for all sort of things like axles etc. I used it incessantly every time I was test fitting and eventually installing the the engine into the 58 willys.....My engine hoist doesn't have a load leveler, and it also has just a tad too short a reach, so I used it to support the backend of the engine and the wheels allow it to roll as needed to adjust to the hoist.

    I am another who would be happy to loan mine out to you when needed - I am not that far south of you. I am out of state for a while, but my wife can probably schedule a time to open up the garage for you. I really won't have a use for it until May when I am back.

    I've delayed dropping my fuel tank to fix my valve because of difficulty of getting it back up. Maybe I need to borrow Steve's soon to be new jack and his expertise one weekend...
