Looking for a roll about engine cradle for my spare 3.8.

Anyone have one to sell, know where there is one available, or can make me one?

Thanks!
 
I bought this one.had to modify the holes but worked for 50bucks.

I could use something like that also. When you said "modify the holes", was that as simple as elongating the holes or what did you mean?
.
 
I made one out of 2x10's & 2x6's.

2x10's on edge alongside the oil pan rails. Rollers could be added.

Materials may cost the same as the pre-fabbed steel unit shown above.

I did similar wooden cradles, taking my cue from GM full wooden crate / pallet. scaled it down so it also fits a 18 x 30 dolly, for mobility, if they need to come down from the rack.
