Did ya'll get those off the trailer okay? Saw a post on FB from Alan saying they were heavy...

They were a pain to load with three of us!

[AussieCJ7]

off was easy a A-frame and chain block and tackle make all the difference but getting them on damn they are heavy

time to start acquiring parts, need lockers, R&P, brakes seals bearing etc aka complete rebuild

[ACJ]

yes we should have taken the engine hoist with us
just didn't realise they came with wheels,tyres and springs
they sure did make them strong back then
unlike the crap they pass off for a dana 44 these days
