BIG RED engine leveler 1500 lb hoist accessory — three-position steel frame, crank-adjust tilt

BIG RED T32100 is a heavy-duty, three-position engine leveler that safely balances engines up to 1,500 lbs and lets you fine-tune lift angle with an adjustable crank handle.

The BIG RED T32100 engine leveler is a steel hoist accessory designed for mechanics, hobbyists, and farmers who need precise control when removing or installing engines. Built from structural-grade steel, it combines a high 3/4-ton capacity with versatile chain mounting options so you can change an engine’s center of gravity quickly. The unit’s threaded shaft and crank handle let you make incremental adjustments without reattaching chains, reducing lift time and improving alignment for reinstallation.

How does this leveler make engine removal easier?

The T32100 gives you control over pitch and balance so you can lift engines evenly and line them up with transmission mounts or frame openings. Its adjustment mechanism eliminates frequent rehooking and reduces the need for extra hands during a lift.

• Three position chain mount holes to vary the pivot point
• Threaded shaft with crank handle for smooth, controlled tilt
• Four 14" chains with L-bracket assemblies for secure attachment
• Steel construction rated for 1,500 lb engine weights

What safety and build features should I expect?

This leveler is manufactured from robust structural steel and engineered to meet the demands of shop and farm use. The chains and L-brackets provide repeatable, stable connections to engine lifting points, while the crank mechanism helps prevent sudden shifts in load.

• Rugged steel frame for consistent strength and durability
• Four independent chains to distribute weight and reduce stress
• Positive L-bracket end fittings to reduce slippage on mounting points
• Simple maintenance—inspect chains and threaded shaft for wear

Will this leveler fit my shop crane and engine types?

The T32100 is built to pair with most shop cranes and engine hoists that accept a leveler hook connection. Its multiple chain positions and adjustable handle make it adaptable across a wide range of engine sizes and block configurations.

• Compatible with standard engine hoist hooks and shackles
• Three adjustment locations to match different engine layouts
• Suitable for inline, V-type, and small diesel engines up to 1,500 lb
• Compact enough for typical garage and workshop spaces

How do I adjust and use the crank-driven shaft safely?

Attach the leveler to your hoist, hook each chain to designated engine lifting points, then use the crank handle to rotate the threaded shaft and tilt the engine. Make small, steady turns and confirm balance before fully lifting to avoid sudden weight shifts.

• Secure hoist and confirm rated capacity before connecting
• Hook chains to factory lift points or strong mounting brackets
• Use the crank handle for incremental pitch adjustments only
• Re-check fasteners and chain engagement during the lift

Who is this for: The BIG RED T32100 is aimed at professional mechanics, home-garage DIYers, small engine shops, and agricultural operators who need a reliable, adjustable solution for engine removal and installation. If you use a shop crane regularly and require controlled balancing, reduced setup time, and a sturdy build for engines up to 1,500 lbs, this leveler delivers a practical, long-lasting tool to simplify lifts and improve alignment.
