Ok I have a pretty simple question...

What is a safe/secure way to haul an engine in the back of a truck??

I tried to search... but honestly wasn't sure what to search under cause I had no luck.

Put in on a pallet maybe?old tire so its soft?Straps?

I'm hopeing someone has transported an engine and can shed some light.

I am picking up a new motor tom. and want it to be safe for the 65 miles I have to drive.

Thanks in advance!!
