depends on if y'all are twigboy's or cornfed
lol 4 guys should be able to handle it fairly easily.... Consider getting an 8' 4x4 and chaining it to the top of the engine... two guys in front and two in back.... that keeps anyone from ever being under the engine. you COULD also set up a ramp of sorts and slide it out |

Cherry picker boom into the van, pick it up, drive the van out from under it, lower it to the ground or onto a dolly. Done.

agree with the picker 100%... I was going on the assumption that he didn't have one.
On the ramp. If you do that the ramp MUST be solidly attached to the van or it will fall. |

Shame you live so far from NJ. You could have borrowed mine....but by the time you got to me you could have rented one for the cost of the gas you'd have to spend to get here and back twice. Still, if you need one you're welcome to borrow mine.

park under tree and lift up with a come-along then lower to ground, thats what i did when my V was a I/O
cheap enough to buy a lift and take your time instead of rent, they not the best but good for the weekend guy!! BS has one i haved used before http://www.harborfreight.com/1-ton-c...ane-93840.html i have this that has been good for me for tree and outboards http://www.harborfreight.com/8000-lb...uller-543.html
