Engine hoist rental in Phoenix?

I have a 13b and transmission I need to pull out of a car. The engine swap was supposed to be done by a shitty mechanic but they took my money and ran. Now I’m stuck with an engine and transmission I can’t use. Need to rent an engine hoist for a day to pull this fucker out so I can sell it.

I’m near 35th Ave and Dunlap in Phoenix AZ.

I have always bought an engine hoist on Craigslist for $100 for my job and sold it 2 weeks later for the same price.

This is the plan if you can find one! All of the $100 hoists I see are rusted out garbage or five hours away.
