Supports and Cranes
Supports and Cranes
Safely lifting, positioning and supporting an engine requires equipment built for the job. Shop cranes, engine stands and engine supports give technicians the capacity and control needed for engine removal, installation and service.
Wrenchers carries Ranger engine-handling equipment for professional shops, service bays and garages, including folding designs that help conserve valuable floor space.
Application
Three tools for three stages of engine service.
A shop crane handles lifting and removal, an engine stand supports an engine once it is out of the vehicle, and an engine support provides support across the engine compartment when components need to remain positioned during service.

Shop Cranes, Engine Stands & Supports
Shop Ranger equipment for lifting, positioning and supporting engines during removal, installation, repair and service.
Guide
Lift it, support it or hold it in place.
These three pieces of equipment serve different roles during engine work. Choosing the right one starts with where the engine is in the service process and what needs to happen next.
Use a shop crane when the job requires lifting and positioning an engine during removal or installation.
Once the engine is out of the vehicle, an engine stand provides a dedicated support platform for continued work.
An engine support spans the engine compartment to help keep the engine positioned while related components are being serviced.

Each product addresses a different part of engine service, from lifting a heavy engine to supporting it during repair.

View RST-500ESConsider
Match the equipment to the service procedure.
Capacity matters, but so do positioning, storage and the way the equipment interacts with the vehicle or engine during the job.
Confirm that the equipment is appropriately rated for the engine or load being handled.
For lifting equipment, consider the range needed to position the engine throughout removal or installation.
Folding equipment can help reduce the amount of floor space dedicated to equipment between jobs.
Adjustable supports help accommodate different engine compartments and service situations.
Three Jobs.
Don't treat cranes, stands and supports as interchangeable.
The crane is designed around lifting and positioning. The stand supports an engine after removal. The engine support works across the engine compartment when the engine needs to remain supported in the vehicle. Selecting by application makes this small category much easier to navigate.
