Default Craftsman Yellow Jack

So it turned out that the Craftsman Yellow Jack doesn't work for Dyna. At least not on my 2013 Dyna Fat Bob. Or maybe I just don't know how or where to lift it. Any secret on how lift a Fat Bob on this jack? I can't seems to find a good location to jack it up.

It won't fit. I tried the same thing.

I took it back and exchanged it for the red jack, then followed SC-Longhair's modification. Been using it ever since, no problems. I made slight changes for my 2013, post #526.

I have the yellow jack. Even with the HD Dyna lift adaptors, it was a balancing act on the lift. I'd do the red jack mod.

To be fair, I didn't try it with the adapters. I just knew it wouldn't fit as is. I saw Vic's mod on youtube, and that was it. I exchanged it for the red one.
