I did a Search on this Site for a Sears jack and got the Info from SC-LongHairs Post Called Sears red jack modification . He also has a Video. I will go step by step. 1. In the Begining I gathered my Tools. 2. Used a Sawsall to cut the Bar Between the Riser Plates. 3. Used a Hand Grinder to Smooth the Bung Hole that was left. 4. Used a Half Inch Drill Bit to Enlarge all 4 Holes Then Reversed the Riser Plates. I used 1/2 inch by 6 inch Grade 5 Bolts, Nylox Nuts and Fender Washers. I think you could get away with 5 1/2 inch Bolts. Takes a little Finagling to get it just Right under the Bike. Works great.

No need for any other jack. The Sears works just fine. I had my bike fully lifted without straps when the 5.9 earthquake hit here, no worries.
