I called a couple of days ago, they asked for pictures and said they would get to me, I'm just impatient... They are still making jacks, just no website, strictly word of mouth sales. They said it sounded like the turntable was the "old" bolt on style, I guess now they slip on. It clears, and lifts the bike well!

LOL....a company selling their product by "word of mouth" = they really are making them anymore.

What are the Pitbull lifts worth in the used market? There's one near me for $150.

I paid more than that and am happy with it. Customer service was good, he said if it needed any parts they would send them to me. It's very stable, goes up easy (air), I am just wondering if I am missing any parts (the angle iron). I see pics of them both ways. That's a good price for one!

A forum member had this one (with turntable) for sale a few years ago. Included were the "standard H rails" that were removed to install the turntable. If you zoom in on the pic of the H rails, it looks like 3 separate pieces zip tied together. The center H, and the 2 outer angle irons.

I wonder why they went out of business? And yes, word of mouth sales mean out of business. I have one of their jacks that I purchased used at an auction and like it. I know the only thing that will fail is the Chinese jack and a generic one will need to be purchased.
