K-member dolly, What do you use>

What have others used to drop the engine on to? When I dropped my LT-1, I used a couple of 4 wheel furniture dolly's from "harbor junk" and they failed. I ended up dragging it out with my tractor.

I am looking for something that moves easily
.
What do others you to drop an engine on to? Has any one have any prints on what to build to move the K-member around.?

Simplest way seems to be unbolt the K-member and the shock tower bolts, raise the nose of the vehicle, tie tops of shocks together and roll the complete assembly - engine, suspension, wheels/tires - out from under the chassis. With trans still attached, put a dolly or rolling floor jack under the trans.
