The garage is too small for all the large and heavies that are accumulating as my CJ disassembly nears completion. Soooo, I'm thinking an engine cradle on wheels might be a useful addition. Anyone built one for the Go Devil? If you have, would you be willing to share the measurements?

A Harbor Freight wooden furniture dolly with a chunk of 3/4 plywood on top works well. Jeep engines stand up well on their own, but it wouldn't hurt to run a ratchet strap around it to keep it from falling over. I have several of the dollies around the shop and even the smallest ones they sell work for jeep motors. Don't get the plastic ones, and check the grain direction on the wooden ones.

That's a great solution . . . simple, inexpensive, and it works. Thanks!
