The 1,000 dolly was used to transport aircraft jet engines to and from the engine shop. The 3,000 dolly was used to remove the engine from the aircraft. It had several hydraulic jacks that would allow adjustment of the rails for any hight needed. Once the engine was removed from the aircraft, it would be transfered from the 3,000 dolly to the 1,000 dolly. Both could carry standard turbo jet engines as well as most modern turbo fan jet engines as used in fighter aircraft. It is used by the USAF as well as the Navy and Marines.
