Abstract:

A transmission stand comprises a front leg assembly and a rear leg assembly pivotally mounted thereto to collectively produce a stable A-frame construction. The rear leg assembly includes a pair of spaced apart rear legs and a stabilizer bar connected between the lower end portions and the rear legs. The front leg assembly includes a pair of spaced apart front legs and an inverted U-shaped lower support connected to the lower end portions of the front legs. The inverted U-shaped lower support extends between and outwardly from the front legs to effectively stabilize the transmission stand. A retainer bracket and chain assembly adjustably connects between the front legs for supporting and securing the lower transmission portion to the front leg assembly. Upper transverse mounting arms are secured to a horizontal support rod extending between the upper ends of the front legs, and a plurality of spaced apart openings on each mounting arm facilitate releasable securement of the arms to the upper portion of the transmission by fasteners extending through the openings into threaded openings in the transmission.
