Jack question
I just ordered the Harley jack adapters for the Dyna. My question is what jacks will these work with?

Subbed. I’ve had my Dyna on the jack a half dozen times or so and it’s always a terrifying experience.
There is no good way to jack it up. |
It's my understanding that the jack adapters snap onto the frame, so any two arm motorcycle jack should work just fine. They're not jack specific

I have the craftsman red jack. Apparently it's not available or made anymore but there are similar ones out there.
https://www.motorcyclecruiser.com/cr...torcycle-jack/ If we are talking about the rubber orange things that snap onto the frame, then they work ok. I have a set. You will need to cut them to size and you still need to be careful using the jack. Not the most stable setup but it works. |

There is a long running thread on modifying the Sears/Craftsman red jack so you don't need the lift adapters for Dyna's. Easy mod and works well. Maybe the mod works on other Jacks?

I have a J&S jack and use it in my 97 WG - no jack adapters needed.
As I've gotten older, I've subscribed to the "Pay Once, Cry Once" phrase. |

Here's how I modified my Harbor Freight jack. Cut out the bar connecting the two sides and then used grade 8 bolts. It doesn't require adapters and it's quite stable. I can climb up and sit on my dyna while it's jacked up with no problem.
