need to pull the motor in a gmc motor home? This is how i did it.
i fabricated a hoist that goes right inside the motor home and will move the motor right out the door. I spent a lot of time building this and I am will to let others that need it rent it from me. Send me an email with your contact infromation and we will talk. Fbnr@adelphia.net You can call me also. Rex 716 432 8983

Mark - the email users of the net will not see the pictures. Hopefully the edit I did will just give links to your pictures.

Wow - that's slick!
I'd have removed the seats....but that's mighty ingenious!

Don't know if I need it - but where are you?

Sorry - just saw you're in NY Confused

Very Nice. But, I agree, remove the front seats. That is what we did when we removed my engine from the top.
Pretty Blue.

Nice.

It looks like you did the move in 3 steps using the same hoist each time:
In the door from outside.
Down the aisle
Up the step and down in the hole.

Thank you,

I dont feel the seats where in the way to much. I dont think I would say they needed to be taken out. almost all the work was done nealing on the step.

I should say the reson this motor needed to be pulled is the oil pickup got cloged with sluge cheated by the intake exaust crossover. It was a good running motor. I am glad that I rebuilt it it runns great now.

I am located south of buffalo, NY in Derby.
