Overall Assessment

Customers highly appreciate our engine cradle for its great usability, superior construction, and practicality. They find it excellent for moving and storing built projects, particularly engines, and emphasize how smoothly it rolls. This robust, well-constructed stand is easy to assemble and very mobile, providing great value for the money. It stands out for its additional feature of built-in bolt storage. Some users noted issues with casters, but majority confirmed that it exceeded their expectations and they would buy it again.

Great product, does what it was intended for.

I purchased this to hold initially hold a gen IV LS while I prep to pull a SBC 400. The LS bolted on to the bell housing and is support in the front by the front brackets (was going to order some adapters, but never got around to it, it's fairly secure, and works well. I was a bit surprised as I wasn't expecting to need to pull the flex plate though..

I would consider buying again, but probably wouldnt

Cradle will support engine fine, it's the products mobility that is in question. Two of the casters are seized and will not rotate around. This makes moving the engine much more difficult. I would return it if I did not need it now.

It works as intended, the wheels are a bit of a pain in the butt however for the price point it is on par, it fit and secured my 1972 chevy 402 big block no problem all the screw holes aligned. Good price for what you get.
