BIG RED Engine Load Leveler 1500 lb – 3-Position Steel Beam with Crank & 4 Chains

Big RED 1500LBS Engine Load Leveler is a heavy-duty, three-position steel engine leveler with adjustable handle and four 14" chains designed to help balance and reposition engines for hoists and shop cranes.

Built from structural steel for garage, workshop, and agricultural use, this Big RED engine leveler gives you a simple mechanical way to change an engine's center of gravity while it's suspended. The unit's threaded crank handle and three chain-mount positions let you fine-tune tilt and balance, reducing the need for manual repositioning and speeding up engine removal or installation tasks.

How does the leveler adjust an engine's angle safely?

The leveler uses a threaded shaft with a crank handle that raises or lowers the beam relative to the chains, shifting the engine's balance without removing attachments. Three chain-mount positions let you choose a forward, centered, or rearward anchor point to match different engine layouts.

• Threaded shaft and crank handle for incremental tilt control
• Three-position chain mount holes to change balance points
• Four 14" chains with L-bracket assemblies for secure connections
• Rugged steel construction rated 1,500 lb (3/4 ton) capacity

What hardware and compatibility should I expect for workshop use?

This leveler is designed to work as an accessory on standard shop cranes and engine hoists. The included chains and brackets attach to common engine lifting points and the leveler's center hook connects to most hoist lifting hooks or chains.

• Center hook compatible with most engine hoist hooks
• Four chain lengths of 14" to reach a variety of lifting points
• L-bracket assemblies for easier bolt-on attachment to engine lift eyes
• Fits garages, commercial shops, and farm equipment settings

How durable and reliable is the construction for repeated use?

Constructed from top-quality structural steel, the Big RED leveler is built for repeated lifting cycles in demanding environments. Its simple mechanical design minimizes wear points and the chains and brackets are sized for consistent, dependable attachment.

• Structural steel beam resists bending under rated load
• Heat-treated chains and L-brackets for long service life
• Powder- or enamel-coated finish (depending on batch) for rust resistance
• Rated for 1,500 lb working load to suit a wide range of engines

Who is this for? The Big RED 1500LBS Engine Load Leveler is ideal for home mechanics, small repair shops, restoration hobbyists, and farm crews who regularly remove or install engines and need a quick, adjustable way to control tilt and balance while using an engine hoist. If you use a shop crane and want a safer, faster method to align heavy components without guesswork, this leveler provides a straightforward, durable solution.
