[QUOTE="Bob C, post: 513398, member: 32451"] I just lifted a 50 hp Honda 4 stroke off a boat. Built a 6ft 4 sided tower on a Harbor Freight furniture dolly. 4 vertical 2x4s or 2x3s joined at the top with (4 sides) with plywood and 3 sides on the bottom Put a 4x4 across the top length ways supported by 2 4x4s going cross ways. Wrapped the top 4x4 with a chain, attached a come along and lifted the motor and rolled it to a storage spot. Hooked a tye down strap to the chain and to an eyelet on the ceiling to insure it would not get knocked over. Thought it would be real tippy but it was not. Unable to get better pictures at this time I put a bar on the tower to attach the come along hook . Attached the come along pulley to the chain and attached the end of the cable to the lift eye on the motor. Stabilized the lower unit with two tie down straps [/QUOTE]
