Default Sears Hydraulic Jack?

Has anyone tried using this hydraulic jack on their Dyna?

Read the only review on the Sears website.

DO NOT BUY!

Looks nice. Wonder if it is low enough to fit under? I have the Sears yellow and love it. I've read complaints about the quality of the Sears red model. Wonder where this one fits?

Buy the Harbor Freight Jack. Use the coupon in American Iron for $59.99. I did and have neve had a problem with the jack. It fits under my Dyna easily.

Here's another Sears Jack... it's orange (as if that makes a difference)

This is the HF Yellow jack that I m referring to. The sears Jack referenced by the OP is not what I would use. it is very narrow and wobbly as one of the posters descrided in another thread.

. I bought the HArbor Freight version with the coupon then did the pad modification to the outside and works like a dream, no issues!

I agree, I don't think that one will fit under your Dyna.

I have the Sears Red Jack, which is cheaper than the one you posted.

I followed SC-Longhair's modification procedure and couldn't be happier. I use it all the time, and never worry about damaging anything.


You can probably do the same procedure on the HF jack, I don't know. I know for sure it won't work on the Sears Yellow jack.

I'm sure one of the Pit Bull/J&S Jack guys will chime in about how they can do cartwheels off theirs with the bike fully raised, but if you don't want to spend $500-600 on a jack and don't plan on jack-surfing, it's hard to beat the modified Sears Red jack.
