Lifting car off chassis stand
Need to get the car off the chassis stand and wondered if anyone had any ideas for the best way of doing it, or is it just a case of get all my mates
round and lift it off??
ta,
Rich.

I used my engine crane to lower the front end and two people were enough to lower the back.
Cheers

Get all your mates round and just promise them a spin when it's done.
If it's only a rolling chassis - 4 of you should be able to do it.

I lowered mine before fitting engine. Used hoist to hold back end up. 2 of us lowered the front. Back end obviously lowered with the hoist.
Dead easy, no drama's.

i tend to use jacks, bricks and blocks of wood, just lower it bit by bit. A big jack could surely do it in one lift anyway, though it may fall of the
back stands

Jack the back up, take the beer crates (chassis stand  ) out and lower wheels onto ramp. Jack the front and move stands and lower to floor. Wheel
down ramp or jack it again to move them. If you've got enough mates do it the easy way though, gives them chance to show off their muscles.

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
