    easy 2x4 crane for lifting an engine head

    Here's a redneck 2x4 wood crane that I made for lifting the cylinder head back onto my CabOverEngine truck, as it is heavy, awkward, and quite a reach to get it up and in there.
    It worked quite well.
    The head is 80+ lbs and needed to be guided down over a copper oil line and also not damage the new head gasket.
