Abstract

A method and apparatus are provided for supporting an engine and/or transmission in an engine compartment of a vehicle, during repair, with a support apparatus having a longitudinal beam pivotably attached to a transverse beam. The engine and/or transmission is suspended from the support apparatus with at least one suspension element, slidingly attached to one of the transverse or longitudinal beams and held in place, while supporting the engine and/or transmission, solely by the weight of the engine and/or transmission without otherwise rigidly attaching the suspension element to the beam. The support apparatus is self-storing, with the components of the support apparatus being connectable to one another for storage as an integrated unit. The self-storing support apparatus includes components configured for attachment and retention to one another, without the use of additional fasteners or retention devices.
