Bridgeport J head mill dimensions

[scottmk1]

Hi, I am meant to be collecting a bridgeport mill tomorrow, I know the overall dimensions of it but does anyone know the height of the top side of the ram where the eyebolt screws into?

cheers

Just measured mine, it's about exactly 5' from the bottom of the base to the top of the ram.

That's great cheers. It might just squeeze under the garage door then!

The ram isn't difficult to remove if the head is off, it's only 4 bolts securing it to the spider underneath.

Yep that's what I'm going to have to do. What sort of weight is in the head & ram?

Weights are hand written on the diagram below and are in Kgs.

Head is around 100Kgs from memory.
