I made my own gantry out of wood. It breaks down into 5 pieces and is pretty to assemble inside the coach. The main beam is 4x6, the A-frame is made of 4x4s, and I made liberal use of glue, 6" 5/16 lag bolts and metallic reinforcements everywhere. The gantry performed very well, not even a bit of a creak during engine removal.
I may be rebuilding my 455. I’m curious how the engine was dropped thru the floor and any changes you made to your wood design. Henry @ 717 576-6806
