Blackbirdxx,
That's the one I have. It comes with extensions for use with ATVs. My only complaint about it is (and I'm pretty sure this would apply to any bike jack) the straps it comes with to prevent the bike from falling off the jack suck. Does anybody know of a way to secure the frame of the bike to the jack without those silly straps that go over the gas tank & seat? If you need to remove a primary cover they get in the way.

In places where my tiedowns touch the bike Iput shop towels between them. It works great.

Citoriplus,
1st off thanks for your service, and for my benefits. I retired in 2005 (25 years, Army) & had a LOT of benefits explained to me on the way out the door. I know that's because of those who came before me. Many of you folks left the service with not much of anything to help you make your way back into the world. Our government is often too slow to take care of it's own, but because of the road your generation walked before mine...we have more waiting for us. From one soldier to another thanks for that.
Do you possibly have a link to these frame gaurds your speaking about? I bought a sears jack & would like to add a set of these.
