Quick 'n Dirty M/C Table Loading Fix
Loading & unloading my scoot onto my Harbor Freight M/C table had a pucker factor of a 9.9 out of 10 for not having a place to put my feet to steady the scoot. So this is my quick 'n dirty fix for a place to put my feet.
My parts list consisted of:
4 ea. "U" shaped steel brackets.
8 ea. 3/8-18 Galvanized Hex Head bolts, lock washers and nuts.
4 ea. 2 x 4 x 16" pine studs.
Parts cost about $27.00.
I positioned 2 brackets per side. One 13" from the wheel chock end to the 1st bolt hole C/L and 8.5" from the back end to the 1st bolt C/L, both flush with the table edge. I drilled 2 25/64" (.390) holes thru the table for each bracket. I then bolted them from under the table. I used my Harbor Freight pickup loading ramps as my outrigger platforms. The slotted and perforated ramp gives great footing and traction. Once the scoot is loaded I take the ramps off, pull out the 2 x 4's, attach the jack foot pedal and raise the table.

I am getting the same thing and it's pissing me off. That wasn't the case when I posted this last spring.
Try this:
Right click over pic.
Select open Link in new tab.
The pic will appear in a new tab.
I'm gonna blame Windows 10 for this one.

It's also happened on several other threads with me trying to open thumbnails
I'm think it's the website
