As the title says, I'm looking for one with casters that I can wheel the lower unit in and out of the gimble bearing housing with the greatest of ease and minimal swear words :)

I don't want to make my own in this case as I want a nice piece that works with the VP spacings. Prefer a nice metal unit that I can assemble and be done with.

Not sure about using the eye hook and engine hoist method. Seems to be alot of weight to hanging on the oil fill opening threads.

Appreciate any replies.

Have used that method for Volvo drive for 20+ years with no problems.
