A pallet jack with 48 in forks will do the job.

Thanks, Clifford. That was one of my questions.

Yes Virginia,
You CAN convert a low floor.

A friend used a pair of mobile home axles to swap the engine in his PD4501. No concrete, just grass & dirt. Had about 4 feet of elevation change between the donor bus & the good one.

House post jacks may be suitable for giving the adjustability you need. I have the axles if you want them.

Good luck with the project!

Was in Harbor Freight this weekend.  Saw their pallet jack.  It was $260.  Kinda suprised by that, as I was expecting it to be in the $160 range.
