Hey Bolters,
I'm in the market for an engine hoist. I'd prefer a 2-ton capacity, but 1-ton is alright.
I bought a HF 2 ton hoist today and it was missing pieces, the wheel bearing had small bits of what appeared to be slag stuck in them, bearings were missing from some wheels, and supporting arms were drilled in the wrong location and bent.
While I'm out returning it, I hoped that some of you would give me your two cents on hoists, brands, places to buy from, etc. I'm all about affordability, but I'll put out more cash for USA made if I can afford it. I've been looking at Northern Tool, but their shipping is devastating.
Thanks again guys and gals.
