Absolutely awful. Feels very cheap and I honestly worry about the mound for the engine whether it will break or not. The main problem is the tri wheel design instead of four like real engine stands. Normal stands have a bar in the front for added stability. If you’re moving this across the shop it honestly starts to tip. Unfortunately the adapter is really small so it won’t fit in a normal stand either. It does technically get the job done but I wouldn’t purchase again. JBugs sells a bench mount adapter that one can cut and re-welded the mount for to use in a standard engine stand. I would tell you to do that. ## Features - For Air Cooled VW's and VW based Dune Buggies - For Volkswagen and VW based Dune Buggies ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B003LIX136 | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,738,533 in Automotive ( See Top 100 in Automotive ) #587 in Engine Hoists & Stands | | Brand | EMPI | | Customer Reviews | 3.8 3.8 out of 5 stars (44) | | Date First Available | May 10, 2010 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Manufacturer | Empi | | Manufacturer Part Number | 0050070 | | Special Features | Knock-down style, requires attachment to case halves for safety | ## Product Details - **Material:** H.D.
