Holds the engine from above so you can unbolt the mounts and drop a FWD transaxle solo; the 57-inch beam spans the fenders and carries up to 1,100 lb.
On a front-wheel-drive or transverse-mount car the transaxle bolts straight to the engine and hangs off the same subframe, so the moment you unbolt the upper mount the whole powertrain wants to drop. This support bar rests across both fender lips (or the core support and strut towers) and takes that weight from above, so one person can pull the transaxle without a second set of hands holding the engine up.
The beam runs 57 inches and the triangular feet adjust from 21 to 57 inches, so it spans the engine bay on sedans, SUVs, sport cars, and light trucks and clears V6 and V8 setups. Two threaded hooks with chains give you a continuous 0 to 7.9 inch lift range, so you can take up the load, break the mount loose, and then lower the engine in a controlled way to line up the transaxle bolts on the way back in.
It is double-beam high-strength steel rated at 1,100 lb with a rust-resistant coating that shrugs off ATF and gear oil, and rubber feet that keep it from scratching the fenders. Beyond transaxle pulls it earns its keep for clutch jobs, engine-mount replacement, and timing work where you have to unload a mount. Model VH818, 28.8 lb.
