Loan of gearbox "support from above" kit. W Midlands

Hi

I have a diesel clutch job planned for early May.

I was interested in the idea to take the gearbox off this way but I would probably only do this if I could borrow a proven set of the timber and steel parts shown in this video.

If anyone has this kit I could borrow for a couple of weekends, i would be grateful.

(I know Zedhed had one but his message box is full so I cannot contact him).

All bits available from B&Q.
I used that method but struggled to split gearbox from engine as engine was at an angle and the gearbox wanted to sit horizontally.

good luck
