    Default renting an engine hoist

    i need an engine hoist but it would be a waste of money for me to buy once since i only need it this one time to swap out the engine on my jetta. Is anybody in the norcross/duluth area interested in renting me a engine hoist for the week? Or does anyone know where i can rent an engine hoist?

    thanks in advance

    Most tool renting places let you use them for around $35/day.

    Hope it helps.

    I actually have one that I would rent out to you. You'd have to come pick it up and put it back. Don't feel like getting my hands dirty

    FUCK GRAN TURISMO EAST!! NEVER TAKE YOUR CAR THERE, ESPECIALLY NOT FOR AN ALIGNMENT!! TERRIBLE BUSINESS!!

    Some AutoZones have them as a rental tool. Like all of AZ's rental tools, you pay the deposit and when you bring it back, you get your money back.
