Engine/Transmission pulled

Pulled the engine and transmission with my son. Of note is the custom car dolly we made out of 2" x 10"s with 1000 pound capacity (each) wheels that I found on Amazon. Moves around easy with one hand. (The fixed jack inserts on the frame fit perfectly inside the jack stand slots. A cut section of bike tire tread provides extra mating grip. It's solid mating and will not slip off. Whenever working under the car, I always put additional blocks for secondary safety. Never putting my life at risk to a single system)

Also manufactured an engine/transmission dolly/workbench using a 1000 pound furniture mover affixed with raised boards. (It moves easy too)

Next steps are engine degreasing and disassembly. (next posting in a week or so)
