Sierra 18-79834 Lifting Eye Tool for Johnson/Evinrude V4 and V6 Outboards

The Sierra 18-79834 Lifting Eye Tool is a purpose-built shop tool designed for Johnson/Evinrude V4 and V6 outboard motors. It threads into the powerhead to provide a secure, centered attachment point for lifting the engine during removal, installation, or service work, helping technicians and boat owners avoid the imbalance and strain risk of improvised lifting methods. The tool is finished in a sleek, black powdercoat that resists corrosion and wear in the marine environment, and it is built with marine-grade materials for long-term reliability in a shop or dockside setting. Because it is engineered specifically for the V4 and V6 Johnson/Evinrude engine family, it provides a proper, secure fit at the correct lift points on these powerheads rather than requiring a generic sling or improvised rigging. This makes it a practical addition for any marine technician, dealer, or DIY boat owner who regularly pulls or installs Johnson/Evinrude V4 and V6 outboards. As with any engine lifting hardware, check your specific engine's manufacturer recommendations to confirm proper fit and safe use before lifting.
