Underway with a transmission jack for use under my hoist. Start with "your standard orange, 1 each" Horrid Fright cherry picker. Add a few scraps of steel

the idea is that the lower "parallal arm" will stabilize the transmission platform and allow for tilt. The plan is to construct a lead screw type deal at the outer end of the lower arm, where the clamp is now. This will allow to manually tilt the trans front / rear.

Also, a long enough screw (might as well use 3 foot redi bolt) will allow for lengthen / shorten of the arm(s) if needed for whatever the situation seems to be.

Or at least "that's the plan" LOL
