Engine Stand Rental

Does anyone know where I could rent an engine stand for a period of about a month or so, maybe more?

Preferably in the Mississauga area.

Thanks

Costco doesnt have an engine stand, only a "cherry picker" engine hoist.
Crappy tire has a 750lb. one for $70 or $80, but I still don't want to spend the cash.

80 buck is nothing for an engine hoist.

Man that's cheap.

well you'd need both anyways

No point in having one without the other

Unless you just intend on building a motor and then selling it out afterwards

Or building a motor to use for myself.

The install wouldn't be done by me. I'm not that confident...or more importantly, knowledgeable/experienced. So a hoist is not a necessity.

Thanks guys.

You say that now.....you won't be saying the same thing when you try to put the engine into the engine bay.
