Not going to torque them today.

Seems every time I torque the head bolts before putting the motor back on the tractor, I find there is something that has to bolt to the head. :ranting:

 

I am NOT endorsing this product mind you, I learned my lesson there long ago, but these 740266965_Screenshot2021-12-29at14-41-07BLACKDECKERWorkmatePortableWorkbench350-PoundCapacity(WM125)-Workbenches-Amaz....png.3baa6999673dfee43ff1cddad5931fc9.pngthings really come in handy for those deep oil pans, transmissions, and other such that need a split table. Mine gets used constantly.

I have two Workmates in constant use and if I come across a bargain for a 3rd, it'll find a new home!

IMHO, you'll want to check out the range of models.

I have a 225 which has two heights and adjustable width jaw opening (#350 capacity) and a 400 with similar jaws but the ability to rotate the jaw to clamp vertically as well (Canadian version, #500 capacity).

If I were buying today, I'd look for a 425 or a 550.
