Default Sears bike jack won't fit under my street glide?
I have the red Sears bike jack and the sucker doesn't fit under my new to me 2007 street glide. Anybody have a trick?

Roll the bike up onto a couple 2x6s and that should give enough room to get it under.

2x6 cut at 45 on ends, shim the jiffy stand and level it out before rolling jack under it

Depends how much clearance you need. Maybe just a 2"x4" under the jiffy stand will do it.

That's what I do with my Street Glide...using the Harbor Freight jack, pretty much the same thing.

I'v got the same jack, 2 X 4 under the jiffy stand is all you need.

The Sears yellow jack slides under the street glide with plenty of clearance. Half the price of a j & s and just as good.
