That's beefy, Doug. I don't think the Chevelle will be a problem.

Yea, I wanted to be sure I ordered the right strength hand winches to lift the car. I don't want the cable to give while I'm under it....I ordered two with weight limit of 2000 lbs strength each.

Here is what it is suppose to look like when its done. This is a pic of Troy Trepaniers' (Rad Rides by Troy) rotisserie.

Wow Jake, thats a big'n also. Looks like you could do that school bus with that one. Hydraulic jacks are cool and I agree. Perhaps down the road I'll add them. For now, I'm trying to keep my cost down due to the fact this stuff keeps adding up. :willy:

Looks pretty stout, Doug. If it's good for Troy it's good for us.

jacks
 
those jacks are 30 or so bucks at harbor freight, not sure what your paying for the winch but it cannot be too much cheaper, check them out, i can give you measurements etc

I found that if you put the pieces that join the two ends of the rotisserie together on the outside rather than in the middle it gives you alot more room if height is an issue. Also jacks on both ends is a great feature that you will be glad you added.

Can you post a list of the parts to build one like that. I think that would work perfectly for me :D .

P.S. Here is ONE I found, but it does not appear to have a winch or jack.
