lots of wood cribbing, no concrete blocks.

I prefer 4x6 and 6x6's

hard floor to work on.. floor jacks, bottle jacks, and a high lift jack if needed all help. heavy duty jack stands.. etc.. etc.

I built a set for splitting an H or M. I suppose you could use a cherry picker for removing the center section after doing the split? I've got pictures that have been posted here before, but if you can't find them, I'll see if I can find them again. I absolutely do not like the idea of wood cribbing, especially for a tractor the size of a 1086.

Just a few pics to give you ideas, although triangle frames work really nice as well.

Since you are working with 86 series tractors this can give you an idea of how they were designed to be worked on.

Doing a split for a TA would require leaving the cab mounted on the rear frame ans rolling the engine and center section forward enough to clear the cab.

Thanx for the replies and pictures,I'm gonna pick up some square tubing and build some stands.I don't like the wood cribbing and bottle jack idea for that heavy of a tractor,its ok for a H or M.

I don't like the idea of bottle jacks and wood cribbing for an H or M either.
