    Hoping to make things a little easier on myself and buying a hydraulic lift table for dropping the rear cradle on the 348's since I still don't have a lift. Trying to decide how beefcake I need to go, anyone on here have a relatively accurate weight for the complete rear assembly with engine/transmission/suspension? Also anyone on here used a lift table for the job and if so your thoughts/recommendations?

    The car weighs 3000 lbs, I'd suggest 1/2 of that to be safe. I'm sure it's a touch less than 1500 but better to be on the safe side.

    I used the table I bought at sears I think its good for 1000 lbs and it worked.
    Just checked its good for 1500 and it's less than 200 dollars
    It's a motorcycle lift
