I finally got around to working on my jiffy stand problem. The bike wasn’t leaning enough to put weight on the stand. If the bike was pushed forward while on the stand it would just roll forward and down went the bike. Sooooo I removed the 2 inch lowering spacers and installed the 1 1/2 inch spacers that came with the kit. Now the bike leans far enough that the jiffy stand locks. Problem solved. The one time it did tip it did a slow roll in my garage. No damage done. Thanks to everyone for your suggestions. I’m always lurking on the forums so any questions or criticisms just fire away.
As I said above I lowered my rear 1 1/2" but I also installed a 21" front and a 18" rear so that's why it sits great on the kick stand. Yeah I called it a kick stand and always will.

Don't call it that. You'll catch hell from everybody. I call mine a push down with my left heel holder upper thingy.
We used to heat em and bend all the time back in the day and never had one fail. Used them until they were ground thin from sliding around while trying to kickstart. Glad you got it figured out though.
