Any place to rent Engine hoist/Cherry picker and engine stand?
 
Hey there guys,
do any of you know where I could borrow/rent an engine hoist and engine stand in the bay area? Don't feel like spending ~$200 for a job that only takes one week (hopefully). Maybe even less, don't think possible but there hope :). Much appreciated!

So what job are you doing that takes one week (or less)?

I'm sitting here staring at my engine hoist and engine stand, but they're a bit far away from you.

I take it I won't see my ramps again for awhile right?

haha the car is up on the ramp at the moment with the fluids taken out and most of the bolts are out. Just need to unscrew a few more bots/nuts and unplug a few more plugs and its ready to be hoisted.

The one in Milbrae does loan ($250 deposit) out hoists but currently it has been checked out. Strangely the autozone in san mateo doesn't have this loan policy.

if you got a truck and dont mind a bit of a drive you can grab the one I got in Santa Rosa and use it for as long as you like :)

Aw thanks! but Santa Rosa might be a bit too far for me. So sorry, but thanks for the offer! But I maybe might take this offer later on, once I save enough for a swap. :) I'll borrow the cherry picker then =] only ~$2000 to go...... :/ It seems I always find an excuse to pick money out of my swap fund......

I'll probaly, or most likely go to autozone to borrow one. HOPEFULLY whoever is using it returns it this week.

I've got one in south SJ (picker/leveler + hoist). Feel free to borrow it if you want.
