Motor cart

[eedwards]

Will a 300 pound capacity cart be enough to hold my motor?
It is a 1975 90hp.

Re: Motor cart

Just barely over that 300lb, ee. Probably work, though.

Thanks for the info.
His motor is only 55hp and the stand looks like it is sagging in the middle.

Also would a newer stroke 90hp be lighter or heavier than my 2 stroke?

Re: Motor cart

My mistake, ee. I was thinking of a JohnnyRude 90, which weighs just over 300#. Your 90 of unknown brand is probably safely under 300#.

Re: Motor cart

I purched two 1000lbs. engine stands for the two motors I am working on. I just bolted a peice of 2by10" to the arms. Works great in the shop. I want to build something I can roll outside. I'm going to try building one using sticky's plans, but modify them a little. I'm going to use 4by4" at the base amd for the uprites. Then purches phumatic castors for on it.

I see. Not a Force? I suppose being a 1975 eliminates Force?

Nothing personal, ee, but I spend an hour or so a day moving posts that are incorrectly placed. One good reason for identifying your engine exactly.

Sorry if that sounded like attitude.
