The current issue of Car and Driver also has a 20% coupon near the back of the magazine.
They will not be able to scan both coupon barcodes because the register will only allow one coupon scan per order. Most clerks will manually enter the 20% coupon, they always do that for me. Ask nicely and they will probably do it for you. The end result is you take the jack home for $56, which is a steal.

Not to steal this thread, but do you have the harbor freight table that is foot pumped or the compressed air table.? Been thinking about getting one or the other next time they go on sale..
My father and I both have a lot of tools and equipment from Harbor. He's been a mechanic his whole life and everything he works with is snap-on, but the house gets stocked with Harbor. I can say first hand the stuff is good if you know what to buy cuz some of it is complete garbage. This is the lift I have tho and we love it. Works awesome!
Does the Dyna need an adapter to safely fit on the scissor style jacks/lifts?
You have to lift the bike using two contact points on each side of the frame (4 lift points). All four lift points must be level to the ground or you will lift the bike up on an angle (not good). The Dyna's oil pan extends below the frame. The pipe side of the frame has a knife-like metal tab that extends below the frame to protect the oil pan. Your jack's lift pads need to be about 13" wide to clear the oil pan and the jiffy stand and contact the frame level. The only two jacks I know of that will clear the oil pan and the jiffy stand right out of the box are the J&S and the Pitbull.
You need to use lift adapters if you use a jack that does not clear the oil pan and the jiffy stand. You can use the HD lift adapters or you can fabricate your own. Personally, I do not like the HD adapters. IMO mine are much safer to use, but my setup requires a jack with a large distance between the lift pads. The 2792 HF jack offers enough distance between the lift pads if you move them both to their outer positions.
The lift adapters will decrease the amount of clearance you have below the frame. Rolling the bike up onto wood will give you back all the clearance you need below the frame.
