I also have the Harbor Freight engine stands. Three of them. Have rebuilt TR3
engines on them. I modified two of them for use as a rotisserie for working on
frames and body tubs, by welding rotating casters on the stationary side. All
I have to do is flip the square tube around for use as an engine stand.
