- Just used one of the HF ones for my AH3000 (longer and heavier than the TR4) but would not attempt with the trans and OD attached. It's a fine piece of kit, but the lever arm with an trans and OD anc

- Andrew, I used the 1K stand for both my TR4 and TR6 engines. Didnt have the transmissions mounted. They worked really good. Rotate etc. I also loaned it to a friend who used it for a 200CC Ford Musta

- Thanks, Bob - I wasn't thinking. It happens frequently these days............. Rather like the time I was thinking of getting a tonneau cover for my TR3 and was then reminded it had a roll bar.......

- Andrew, Ok, and by the way, that was a 200 CI Ford engine not CC. Doubt a 200 CC engine would be much good in a 65 Mustang! Bob ** triumphs@autox.team.net ** Archive: http://www.team.net/archive

- If you have a sturdy work bench. you may want to move to the top for clutch/tranny installation. no need to bend over, etc as well as much less 'lifting' even with a hoist. see: http://s1001.photobuc
