Bike Jacks (again !!!)
Okay Forum, I've read almost every post I can find about the different brands of bike jacks.
I seem to be settled on either the J&S Jack or the Pitbull jack.
They both have videos on their websites showing the stability of the jack.
I do like Pitbull's turntable feature too.
So my question is has anyone looked at these two specifically, and could render their opinion?
The price is about even, but I think the lift height is higher on the pitbull.
I need a good jack for detailing and small maint usage.
Any input from the group?

I just ordered a J&S jack about an hour ago. It's guaranteed for life. That's why I went with the least expensive of the two (between J&S & Pitbull).

Any jack that lifts a bike safely is a good jack.

A few years back I had the Pitbull... Lifted my Heritage just fine but didn't care too much for the rails.. This time around I got the J&S... bout the same quality overall with better rails (in my opnion) and yes I can swivel the bike (Ultra) with no problems.. I found no real advantages of the Pitbull over the J&S.. Both are nice jacks yet for me the J&S is a tad bit superior. (at least on the lifting rails)
