as the title says guys how strong is the roof of a disco. as many of you know i've had some transfer issues and now have managed to get a replacement. but here's where the roof things comes into it. everyone has said use a hoist to take out the old and put in the new (im removing gearbox and transfer and replacing both)
but the only engine hoist i can get my hands on is a frame and chain lift that wont come down low enough to go through the car. so my thought was can i put a strap over the roof in through the windows and put a chain lift onto that and do it.
before everyone shouts at me for how many ways this is wrong take into account i have done NOTHING yet i am only asking to try and come up with some options.
as always thanks for the replies in advance.
