Could I please ask possibly the year's dumbest question? I have my B60 engine out and it needs work, so I wonder if the engine stands on ebay are ok. These have a vertical bracket that seems to bolt to the front drive pulley with 4 bolts. No other apparent support, so I just wonder if it is safe and secure to have the engine "hanging" from one end like this. Plan just the engine (ie disconnect gearbox and transfer box) and the one I'm looking at is rated 560kg, which is ok weight-wise. There is another rated at 900kg which would cope with engine, GB and Transfer box combined weight - but would this be too big ask for the fixing?
