Is that an engine hoist or what?  Where did you buy it, how much did it cost? 

That thing looks sweet.  I just seen some picks of a small boom on a truck bed that would cost some big cash.  This looks affordable.

Sweet.  200 bucks.  Thats awesome.  Now if I got one of those and one of the guys in the machine shop at work to put it an a track so it could slid up and down the trailer or truck bed it would be even sweeter.  Either way thats just too cool.  I have to get me one of those.
