• Secure Load Attachment: Robust chains and L-shaped mounting brackets are included for reliable attachment to factory lift points or load leveler brackets, minimizing shifting and enhancing stability during lifts.
• Enhanced Weight Distribution: Effectively distributes weight across multiple attachment points, improving control and safety when managing off-center or accessory-heavy engines.
• Compact and Compatible Design: Measuring 18.3" x 7.1" x 2.4" and weighing 12.1 lbs, this tool is easy to store and compatible with most engine hoists in automotive and light industrial settings.

Applications

The ATD 7491 is an indispensable tool for engine removal and installation on common passenger cars, light trucks, and SUVs, particularly where clearance is limited and precise angle control is paramount. It can be utilized to accurately align transmissions to bellhousings, gently lower engines onto mounts, and confidently position heavy components such as transfer cases or small industrial power units. The controlled tilt action reduces operator strain and significantly speeds up setup and adjustment times on major drivetrain jobs.
