Tranny Cradle

The Tranny Cradle (Model WM6) is a specialized transmission support tool engineered for automotive technicians and serious DIY mechanics who regularly perform transmission removal, installation, or overhaul work. Whether you're dropping a transmission for a complete rebuild, swapping powertrains, or accessing the bell housing for clutch service, this cradle provides the stable, secure platform necessary to protect both your transmission and yourself during critical engine bay work. Transmission work demands precision and safety—this tool eliminates guesswork and prevents costly damage to expensive drivetrain components.

Built with a robust welded steel frame, the Tranny Cradle features a low-profile design that fits easily under most transmissions while providing maximum contact surface area for load distribution. The 13 x 7-inch base footprint delivers a wide, stable stance that resists tipping even under the weight and torque of larger transmissions, while the 18-inch height positions the cradle at a practical working level that reduces strain on your back during installation and bolting procedures. The strategically designed support arms accommodate both automatic and manual transmissions across a wide range of vehicle platforms, with the welded construction ensuring the cradle maintains its integrity through repeated use and the inevitable impacts of shop work.

This transmission cradle is ideal for professional shops, transmission specialists, and experienced home mechanics tackling major powertrain projects on street cars, performance vehicles, or classic restorations. At 5.43 pounds, it's portable enough to move between bays or between different vehicles without fatigue, yet substantial enough to deliver the rigidity required during complex transmission work. Compatible with most standard automotive transmissions from compact cars to mid-size trucks, the Tranny Cradle integrates seamlessly into any mechanic's tool arsenal and pays for itself on the first major transmission service.
