Block size for under Dyna Frame - ATV Lift
Doe anyone have an ATV/Cycle lift that they use to lift their Dyna? Latus HD sells one but states a block must be used under Dynas to keep level due to frame shape.
Wonder if anyone knows the size of the block needed....
Be easy to go down to home depot and have one cut...

Basically you'll have to stand the bike slighly upright but leave the kickstand down. Roll the jack into position. Position your blocks or your pieces of wood so as not to jack it up under the engine or trans but on the frame. If you rip a few 1x3's about 1.5 - 2 inches wide it'll fit just right.

HD sells a kit for around $21.95. Easy on and off.

Instructions are included with the kit.
Get the bike somwhat level upright using a one inch block or something under the jiffy stand. It makes the jack go under a little easier when the bike is level. Position the jack at the blocks and jack it up. It's a little scary at first, but once you do it, it's a piece of cake.
When the bike is at the hieght you want, strap it down. It may seem like it's not going any were, but strap it any way.
