A device for installing rocket engines at a severe cant relative to vertical, while maintaining uniform loading at the thrust chamber exit is proposed. The device is characterized by an axially extensible, tiltable pedestal, a lifting platform for supporting a rocket engine at its thrust chamber exit, a mount with a concentric base characterized by a concave bearing surface, a plurality of uniformly spaced legs extended radially from the base, and an annular receiver coaxially aligned with the base and affixed to the distal ends of the legs for receiving the thrust chamber exit. The lifting platform is concentrically related to the pedestal and is coupled to the extended end portion through a convex bearing surface for accommodating a rocking motion of the platform about an axis angularly related to the longitudinal axis of the pedestal. Mated curved bearing surfaces are employed for coupling a tiltable lifting platform with a pedestal and adapted to support rocket engines at the thrust chamber exits.
