I use mine as a car hoist - for the DSR. Entire car, less driver, weighs around 900#; it spends off days on a car stand, at waist height. In order to put it on the floor for loading on the trailer, I have to hoist it off the stand, and the crane works perfectly!

This gives a bit of an idea...

so this is getting fun - but maybe we should take it the next level. Post a pic of one of your alternate uses of an engine hoist . . .

I used mine for smashing my left hand

Luckily my wedding ring is platinum and didn't crush, I think if it was gold I'd have lost my fingers.

It's a multi positional beer keg extractor. Used to easily and safely remove heavy kegs of beer from vehicle

and position them in your tapping device without heavy lifting and possible injury.
