The LEAP-1B powers the Boeing 737 MAX family, and the compatibility line in the specification names that pairing outright: LEAP-1B engines for Boeing 737 MAX. The hydraulic system works through four single-acting actuators, with two vertical settings for wing operations. Ground clearance is selectable: 50 mm or 80 mm. Eight vibration-suppressing mounts cushion the engine on the move. The stand tows in both directions, weighs 2,380 kg, rides on swiveling double-wheel casters with dual pins and carries a Skydrol enamel coating. The listed dimensions run 4,775 mm x 2,489 mm x 1,549 mm from length to height. A maximum stack of three units applies when the stands are empty, which trims the floor area set aside between engine moves. Where hydraulic stands sit among the other designs is a question for our overview of types of aircraft engine stands; the guide to aircraft engine shipping picks up once the engine leaves the building.
The related LEAP-1A, flown on the A320neo, has its own LEAP-1A engine stand.
Rental and lease differ mainly in horizon. For a dated job – a shop visit, an AOG engine swap – book a rental; for a rolling program, ask about lease terms. Both are quoted individually – request availability with your dates and location and we will respond with options.

Four single-acting actuators raise and lower the cradle between two vertical settings used for engine work at the wing.
Yes, up to three units, which keeps storage compact between engine moves.
Both models are offered; which one fits follows from the length of the job. Quotes are prepared on request against term and delivery location.
