Title pretty much says it. I'm trying to remove the engine on my 94 4.0 OHV and cannot figure out where the hoist points are. I own an engine lift, balancer, and stand and I have assisted with engine rebuilds before but I've never cowboyed up to lead a removal until now and I completely overlooked how to actually hook the engine up to the lift. I've read I can use ratchet straps around the loops in the exhaust manifolds and that sounds like a good idea but I'd prefer to lift it with bolts and chains that don't have a chance of tearing on a sharp corner.
My engine bay is torn apart right now and I am just about ready to remove it so any help will be GREATLY appreciated. If you know where these lift points are or have a suggestion or removing the engine, please let me know.
EDIT: Gonna go with the ratchet straps around the exhaust manifold, I'm going to use this thread for any other urgent questions I have about the project.
Currently talking about: My fuel pressure going to 0 PSI in three days since the last drive.
