Four wheel stands are nice, but as long as you pay attention
to how you move the stand around, there is nothing wrong
with a three wheel stand. I have had a spare SHO motor on a
three wheel stand for several years, no problems.
I bought mine at a local overstock supply store, I would
guess that Harbor Freight would have some. IF all you need
to do is store a motor or do light work, almost any of the
cheap ones will work.
I overhauled a small block chevy on my cheap three wheel one
a few years back and even using the torque wrench it was fine.
