I bought one from Northern Tool. Biggest piece of sheit I ever owned. First off, I couldn't roll it under the bike, it wouldn't go low enough. I had to either hold the bike up with my hands and roll the jack with my foot, or get help. After using it about 4 times, it started leaking. Now I only use it as a transmission jack when working on a cage. I don't have enough room in the garage for a lift. I'm just screwed![:@]

 

Ive used the Sears red jack on my 2000 Dyna for over 2 years now, no problems. But because I have a Dyna, I had to get the "lift kit" from HD. Problem being the tranny sits lower than the frame on Dyna's so these 4 neoprene blocks take care of that problem. My bike was also lowered 2" from stock and it takes a little bit if wiggling to get the lift & blocks under the bike in the right spot. I liked the idea about putting the bike on 2 2x10's so the lift fits under it easier.

I have the yellow Craftsman jack, used for my 2007 Street Bob. If I had to do over, I would buy the J.S. Jack I learned about on this forum, it does not have a cross member, it is open on the end.. The cross member on the yellow jack (on the front wheel end of the jack)hits my Jiffy stand when the stand is down, so I have to sit on my bike, roll the jack under the bike, than hand pump the jack up; what a balancing act. When lowering, I hope to remember to put the Jiffy stand back down again. If you have a 2007 Street Bob you must use H/D frame extensions, due to a oil pan guard, other models "may" have the same need for frame extensions.
