Do they all sit in the wing guttering, I'm not so keen on doing that, as it's newly painted.

My car's on a lift, so want the full benefit of it, so the beam is the perfect solution.
That's why I'm asking, to see if folk have tried some
That's a great help!!tinweevil wrote: ↑Fri May 29, 2020 12:59 pm
The job I got it for was the 20,000 mile bearing changes on my 1500HL but actually it got used a lot more than that. Turned out to be more useful than expected. On mine the rubber feet are a perfect snug fit in the channel around the engine bay though the metal gets very close to the wing. On paint as pristine as yours a 2mm thick shim of rubber in the channel first would lift the metal safely clear. It looks in the above picture like the rubber is now round and broader which might not work so well.
Ah, here it is on the left on fleabay:
The fixed length beam would stick out well past the wings on a Dolomite, telescopic doesn't get bumped into.
I had a similar experience on a cheap ebay knock-off version. very handy when you're messing around with mounts etc. As long as you're careful and don't smack it into things getting it into position it works wonders.On mine the rubber feet are a perfect snug fit in the channel around the engine bay though the metal gets very close to the wing.

I'm just waiting for it to arrive.Toledo Man wrote: ↑Thu Jun 18, 2020 7:58 am When I had the local garage replace a section of the offside front wing on my 1850 which included the front mounting point for the front subframe, an engine support beam was used for them to be able to drop the front subframe leaving the engine/transmission in situ. The job was done on a 2 post ramp so it was an essential piece of kit.
