Ideas, thoughts, reviews regarding lifts and or jacks you use for personal use in your garage? A jac will give me access to removing wheels, but of course lift is much more stable. Anyone using a Pitbull jack? (they show trikes on their lifts) How stable? Recommendations, thoughts, ideas all appreciated - jack or lift??

Happy Thanksgiving To All !!

ps 18 degrees tomorrow here in Chicago area

 

I tried to use the Pitbull lift I have and it didn't work so well. I looked at the picture they have on their site and it looks like they put a plate or something on top of the rear lift arm. Last winter I installed cams in mine and my dads Triglides and worked off the floor, this winter my dad took pity on me and got us a Handy table lift..... Much nicer.

 

msocko3 - nice, very nice set-up. Would dad like to adopt me? Little more than I wanted to spend, but maybe there is a Santa Claus! I see how you used to take rear tires off, great idea, simple, easy. Hey, I finally got the Fuel Moto head pipes you suggested to me a while back and will be installing over the down winter months. Thanks for the info, especially regarding the Pitbull, kept wondering how that would work!

 

It seems the older I get the farther from that cold concrete I can get the better. I tend to work off a stool more when I can...The lift for most jobs I think is the best way to go...

 

Coupe, you just need to add more layers of cardboard down

 

I think thats what the rebels use to block the drafts from coming in the windows with during the winter months.

 

Your going to like the head pipe, best mod I've made to date.

 

That would be the case if I bought your lift, you know I can't afford one of them danged Yankee contraptions..

I wish I was not to old to adopt, I would like to get one of em for Christmas!

 

You are not to old to adopt. What is your address. Keep a watchful eye out looking for the freight delivery truck.

 

You mean freight mule, I live so far back in the hills they have to pump in sunshine!

Just bring it to Maggie Valley, I think the ol freight mule has COPD, might kill him draggin it up the hollow!
