What engine hoist for pulling engine/trans while on cribs?
The HF cherry picker will do it, just run your arm and chain down to where you think it will end up when the load is seated or lifted and remember where that is, its a drag to lift a load and then max out on the lift and you still got 6" of rad support to clear. grab it close to intake. If you pull both together the trans will end up pointing 45 down and piss ATF all over the place, use a plug! Youll still have to wrestle the trans over the rad support while pulling the cherry picker, NOT SAFE WITH ONE PERSON! Make sure the wheels are lubed, n a HARD surface and pointing the right direction. Id tell you to roll the car back but its on cribbing. If you use a load leveler it reduces the lift height you can obtain. It may end up being easier/safer to pull them seperated, then you can get a straight lift and not beat up your tunnel or have to roll back 700 lbs.
