J & S Jacks convert
Just incase anyone is in the market....
I bought the jack from J & S and love it! It clears my '08 Bob with no modifications. I climbed all over it while it was on the lift not strapped down. It was even stable with one wheel and then both off. Needless to say I'm very happy with it and would recommend it to anyone that's looking at buying a jack.

RE: J & S Jacks convert
I would love to have a J&S jack. I've been borrowing one very similar to the Sears yellow and it works fine but when I buy one I want the J&S. I saw your fork gaiters laying on the garage floor. They look like the 1970 Triumph ones I tried. Do yourself a favor and order the Jammers. I just put them on and they look great! Much better than when I tried the Triumph ones. Check my post.

I've had my J&S for several months, and I don't see how I lived without it. I slide it under frequently to clean the wheels and check the tires or justmove the bike around in the garage. I had a Sears yellow, but this is much better for a Dyna. There are no adapters needed, and there is no long handle, just a foot pedal. CAUTION - release the bottle pressure SLOWLY when lowering the bike, or you will see how high your bike can bounce.

I wish I would have got that one I have the sears yellow one and it does the job but my next one will be J&S..,IMO the 69-70 triumph gaiters look much better than the jammers are to spread apart for my taste but to each their own I guess.

RE: J & S Jacks convert
I understand that some like the look of the Triumph gaiters better. I wanted something that looked like the Nightster gaiters and the Jammers are dead one. I did need to pull them up to be long enough but that is how they are designed. The make a longer set for Wideglides that would allow the bellows to be closer together. The main thing is that they are molder to fit over the sliders. If you look carefully at other members photos that used the Triumph or Daystars you'll notice that they butt them up against the sliders or the chrome dust covers instead of going over the sliders. The Triumphs are about 2" too short if you want to install them over the sliders.
