I have done a lot of wrenching on my back I guess the trick is being prepared for minimum trips down there. Your next cage vehicle oil change try one trip under unless you have a car lift of course. To get to the other side of the bike there is less travel. Takes some practice with the straps but oh well. These are 28'' apart you can run them across the garage for multiple positions, bikes. Those D rings you see on/in trailers would be nice. I just flatten these if I have to. Floor jack the rear up. Plus I installed chains dangling from above to attach from above if needed.
i agree but, hammer drill is not necessary

Oh, fine, he's never coming back now.

On the other hand, all you need to do is left-click on his name, select "Find all posts by...", and have fun.

I find it easier to just push the bike over on its side. Which way I push it over depends on which side I want to work on. No hammer drill needed
