I think an engine hoist might actually be less expensive than all the parts of that setup.

I wish that pictures were not so expensive back in the day so I would have some photographic proof of the shit we used to do.
Chunks of tree trunk/ broken cinder blocks used as jack stands. Engines hanging off 2x4 roof rafters in a "car port" made entirely of old salvaged wood 40 years prior. Whole car bodies hanging from a tree branch by some old hemp rope and an antique chain fall. Working under a car held up on forks of a tractor loader with very iffy hydraulic lines that were known to let go with zero warning Oh the list could go on and on. That picture would be pure luxury since it was at least inside!

I was probably in high school before I realized there was a way to pull an engine that didn't involve a tree.

but i doubt you would've thought to take a picture even if it had been free, as it was just 'how this is done'. or even more realistically, you didn't have the time to take the picture because the hydraulic lines could let go at any minute! but if you ever get bored while driving with younger people, it's fun to point at tree branches and rate them according to the size motor that could be yanked out with them...
