Default Harbor Freight Lift Dyna Mod

I bought the Harbor Freight Yellow lift and read all about the Dyna mod for oil pan clearance.

As I inspected what I had to work with I found that could simply undo the bolts and move the supports to the outside of the lift. I then put the bolts back on and it's seems done.

Am I missing something, it took about three minutes to do.

thats weird, i just did the same thing this morning, in fact, before i did it i would have to get it up on 2x6's for clearance to get the jack under,due to lowering blocks, but with the modification it slid right under,NICE!!!

I have the same POS from them. Not more here lifts my dyna OK. Just beware if you lift it then lower it to put the wieght on the lock bar and not the jack bottle you might not beagle to jack it up to release the lock and you bike will be stuck on the lift like mine and then when I tried to wrestle it off I broke the lower oil line fitting in the pan. Talk about a bad day!

What Dyna do you have and can you post some pics too with the bike lifted on the jack? i have the same jack but i had to bolt two 2X2s on the supports to give it clearance even after moving the supports on the outside.

I have an '09 Fat Bob. I didn't get any pics while the bike was up unfortunately. The lift just barely fit on the outside of the kick stand and the oil pan (not an inch to spare either).

I did have to drive onto 2x4s to get that little bit of clearance though.
