You thinking of selling...? lol.

J&S are definitely worth the price. I've yet to read a negative comment ANYWHERE, regarding ANYTHING with J&S. Whereas, you cannot say that about many other jacks.

I'm holding out for a J&S...it's worth it in my eyes.

J&S all the way baby - can store the bike, maneuver all over the garage & wrench away w/no worries. Pit Bull is good too - these are probably the #1-2 recomended jacks on the market.

I also have the Harbor Freight and it works just fine. It does tend to lower rather quickly but it is fine once you are used to it.
