[QUOTE="Earthwerks Unlimited, post: 25689, member: 1300"] I'd be tempted to use or modify or build a “cherry picker” or engine hoist. My buddy has a Snap-On one that neatly folds up for storage and rolls around. Sure you have the outboard legs/stabilizers to contend with but that's a small price to pay for mobility and portability. If you designed it right you could weld pallet fork pockets on the bottom of it to move it with the bobcat. I saw one on YouTube that had car tires out front on the legs and attached to the skid steer's attachment plate---I think the attachment plate pivoted so it could be steered. They were using it on a very smallish machine to pick up big loads inside a barn. [/QUOTE]
