Hmm...looks like a good tool as long as you use it properly.

I understand there is a difference in weight between the Ford tranny and the Z tranny, but why take the chance.
I agree to certain extent, for those that don't know anything from harborfreight or those cheap "made in china" tools should be considered as occasional use tools only. I'll probably use it a few more times and although its rated for 400lbs I wouldnt feel to confident using it on a big 300lb tranny. I think the Z's trans is about 150lbs.
