My new jack

PDWeyand · Apr 17, 2012

Well I was going to buy this jack from H.F. but a friend of mine father had a used one for sale for 100.00 This one from H.F. is like 175.00. So I think I got a deal and the one I bought has safety locks on it also. I think I got a great lift and it also can be used to move the bike once on the lift if I need more room to work.

This is the jack I bought for 100.00

But I have yet to get the bike on it, I have shocks to replace and rear brakes to work on.

Wouldja look at dat 'big load' it lifted?:biglaugh:

Looks like a "Bah-ghan," as they say in NYC.

Throw some cribbing around it to level the load to account for pipes & the like, strap-it-down, and "Bob's yer uncle!"

I was using my smallest child to show the size, she is ten years old and is 4' 6" tall. So this has a pretty good lift almost 2' 6" of lift.

For a ten year old she is a large child. My wife is 5' 4" and my oldest daughter is 6' and my son is 13 and 5' 9" and I am 6' 4". No apologies needed, I thought it was funny also and till you said something I did not realize she was in her socks lol. It is all good.

That looks like it should do the job Paul, nice that you can roll it around too.:clapping:

getting the jack from the ground into the back to the truck was a effing joke and back on the ground when I got it home. If you look at the close up of the safety lock you can see a bolt that will 'lift' the one set of wheel off the floor / ground and the jack will not roll. Whoever build this jack designed it so it would not wiggle while in the up position either. This jack it tight and solidly built.
