Hi

Anyone got a Lifting Gantry, 3 m wide, 3 m high and extending to 5 m high ideally.

Cheers

Dave

Have a look on ebay, I bought a lovely one for £300, had to go to Birmingham to pick it all up but a real cracker.

I was going to say the same thing. Mines adjustable in height and the roller goes through it. Think it was £300 as well so seems the going price

My gantry has been one of the best investments which I have ever made , I could never have rebuilt my engine without it . It is a 5T one , and cost me £400 , and then the block was another £35 on ebay , but that is about eight years ago .

Anyone know of any firms selling them?

I know of one that sells used gantrys but I don't think the ones they have are big enough really.

Ebay is drawing a blank at the moment..

Cheers

Dave
