Anyone know of a good lift or jack for a lowered bike? I had the harbor frieght yellow lift before and liked it, but it didn't fit under my bike after I lowered it. I don't have that lift anymore and need a new one now. Just wanted to see if you guys knew of a decent one that gets real low. Thanks

 

Im curious for this answer as well or how someone may have rigged a set-up... i was thinking about 2x4's to lift it a bit

 

I keep a set of 2x12 boards with angled on the ends laying around for lowered bikes that come in.
I like the wide boards, it is easier to keep em on it and remove the bike.
You can go to large building supply stores and pick up some cut (scrap) boards cheap. may have to wait a week or so but you can find em.
2x10 woks good to.

 

Found this while searching on youtube. Looks like it will work ok for now.

 

That's the same one I got from pep it's for a hundred bux. It werx for me, and doubles as a tranny jack.

 

Here is what I use. I also have a red modified sears jack, but these are the best. I can use one to lift front or back, both to level it out. They are fantastic for helping with wheel polishing. They are stable and lift quite a distance.

 

What ya got there Gommee??? They look very handy. Brand name?? where ya get them??? Thanks Bob..

 

Craftsman yellow with bike rolled on 2x4's. No prob!

 

The first time I had seen these, it was on Titan Jacks site. Since then, Redline stands and K&L sells them. Titan and Redline want over $100 each for them and K&L wants $300.

I know, I almost fell over! Since I first encountered these, I wanted one.

I picked the two you saw in the picture up for about $50 each on sale from a place in Canada here called Princess Auto. Our version of your Harbor Freight.
Princess Auto has them on sale for $60 each right now.

Another member who is a good friend, 128Auto, ordered his off of Ebay before they came on sale.

I put a thin rubber mat on the top of each of them just to protect my frame. They are easy for one guy to use, hold one side of handle bar while extending and as it gets higher you just slowly lean bike as you lift until it makes full contact.

I do not have a picture of mine up on them, but here is a picture of 128Auto's bike on his. If you want me to fully extend one and post a picture, let me know.

 

you can put a wide base on a screw jack and do about the same thing.
Just make sure you get one with a hex drive on the end.

just a thought
