A cherry picker? Isn't that the truck with the arm and basket on the back?

Nice shop though! How much does that set you back?

How do you plan to get your 7 IN THERE?

Looks like a 10" rise off the ground. You're gonna need some sort of ramp, I'd guess....

...Unless you drive it really, really fast.

Then, maybe you'd make it up there.

What is missing is an inspection pit, with a small bob cat/trench digger they are very easy to construct and make working on the suspension very simple.

You don't need a cherry picker., you got a roof over you. Besides, They take too much space. Just get a winch, and place it on a support beam.

Whatever happened to our engine being "The size of a beer keg and can be lift by one fit man"... hehe

Okay, so I could never manage to lift it, even if I *could* get my arms around it properly when it was in the car.

Nice car, and nice setup DF...

The thing that sucks is the cross beam is to far towards the middle
