Default Remove and Replace Alone. Stupid?

Some of you may have seen my thread on the other forum...

http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.ph...ghlight=garage

Today, I was setting up the hoist to remove the engine... I started to extend the boom while testing to see if I would have enough clearance.

After extending, the hoist started to become unstable -- that's when I realized I hadn't locked the "legs" in place. If the hoist had gone over, it would have smashed the hood of my BMW. Dodged a bullet there!


But it made me wonder if it is just stupid to try to remove and replace the engine myself?

Has anyone had any real troubles doing this job solo?
