Who To Use To Pickup My Spare Rb25 From A Workshop And Deliver To My House?

[nigelswazi]

Well my spare RB25 long motor has been sitting in a friends dads workshop for quite sometime and the time has come to move it to my house, if I don't he will send it to SIMS and there is no way my perfectly good RB25DET is going there!

So basically I am wondering what the best way of moving the engine is I live about 5-6kms from the workshop and the other problem is my 40 degree driveway down to my garage at the other end. Also does anyone know how much a RB25 long motor weighs?

If anyone has used a company they could recommend or have the means to do this themselves please reply here, pm me or sms 0404998591 with details and approx cost not wanting to spend an arm and leg just to relocate the motor. Also if anyone is looking for a RB25 I am willing to sell it at this stage as my motor is still perfectly healthy and it could be picked up from the workshop direct in this case otherwise I will hold onto it.

Thanks in advance for all replies

maybe get it on a pallet and see if either a towing company or freight company can transport it for you?

Or put it up for sale in the FS thread here and now ... then the buyer can organise collecting it.

have a mate with a ute? van?

put it on a pallet and hire out a trailer or something? just make sure the block is tied well to the pallet.

there's probably 101 ways of doing this haha.. its not like you're trying to transport a house.

Thanks for the replies and thanks again Lee (pm sent) for your offer of help. Due to my driveway I have organised a Ute with a hydraulic arm to collect and deliver but wont be a while we need to get to the end which is in the corner of the workshop atm blocked in.

If someone on here is looking for RB25 Long Motor just pm me I may let it go if its needed better than sitting around collecting dust
