Review on πŸ‹οΈ OTC (4305) Engine Load Leveler - High-Capacity 1,500 lb. Load Support by Anthony Parker

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Can make load lifting and balancing easier

Quilt Lady Hubby Review: Bought because I needed to pull the engine out of a PU truck to install a long block. When I was a tech we always had one of these in the shop, but we wanted more control when lifting this thing. Unfortunately I couldn't use it because it was a 2011 Dodge Ram truck with a "Cab Forward" design and there just wasn't enough room between the engine and the firewall to use it. Chains ended up having to be used but the load balancer worked great when the engine was off and we had to lift a new long block etc. In normal conditions it should work fine. At first I was afraid the handle would get in the way, but it pivots on a long threaded rod. My experience is that OTC products make great products.

Pros
