Abstract: An apparatus for preparing an excavator stick for transport includes a base supporting two symmetrically spaced platforms for use by a mechanic. The base comprises a saddle at one end for holding the back portion of the excavator stick which has been detached from the boom of the excavator, an excavator stick point support bracket at the opposite end of the base for removably engaging the front portion of the excavator stick which has already been detached from the excavator bucket, and an extendible fork-shaped excavator stick support member disposed between the saddle and the excavator stick point support bracket for supporting the body of the excavator stick in the excavator stick support eye region of the excavator stick during preparation for transport.
