Abstract: An angularly adjustable and reversible saddle that replaceably, angularly, and reversibly attaches to a ground-based hoist including a boom having a free distal end with a lateral through bore, and replaceably supports a component. For example, when applied to the automotive industry, the ground-based hoist can be a motor hoist and the component can be any component requiring positioning from below the automobile, such as, a transmission, a gas tank, a rear end, etc. The angularly adjustable and reversible saddle includes a receiver and a mounting apparatus. The receiver replaceably supports the component. The mounting apparatus depends from the receiver and replaceably, angularly adjustably, and reversibly attaches to the ground-based hoist via the lateral through bore of the free distal end of the boom of the ground-based hoist.
