Now that I am starting do a LOT more work on my RK, I am looking for a new jack. The 'ol Sears red just bugs me with the marginal stability.

Just wondering if J&S ever go on sale (more thane the usual 5% deal they show on their site regularly).

BTW - NOT trying to start yet another "jack thread" at all... ;^)

 

They dont go on sale very often. I just put mine together today. And love it. You c,an get a free oil pan with a purchase right one

Great service. Delivered in 4 days

 

You can buy them at Bike Rallies and get a discount. I bought my Pit-Bull at the MB Bike Rally last year and saved 20%

 

Here is one for sale in the classified section;

Buy the Harbor Freight table on sale for about $280, then keep your crapsman for a center jack. I think the tables are one of those things that once you have it you never want to go back to a jack.....

 

I have NO company affiliation, but I do love the lift, now at 10% off.

Just got my J&S Jack last Wednesday and its awesome, very stable. So goes the saying you get what you pay for. I got a free t-handle with mine and he offers 50.00 shipping anywhere in the US, got mine in 3 days.

Have you seen the table @ Harbor Freight in person.......Yikes, its just spot welded and very unstable. The pit bull would be the only other one I would even consider in the same class as the J&S Jack but it was $100.00 more.


Just my two cents

 

I have a craftsmen also and did not trust it eather so I had santa bring me a J&S for cristmas this year , can do alot more than the $ 300 - $400 you spend on a good jack if you drop your bike

 

i was wondering the same thing on the 5% also, just thinking if it was worth it to attend one of the upcoming shows and get the same deal and save on the shipping since you could probably pick it up.

Since I have one in my garage I would say yes I have seen it in person. I have been fabricating for about 10 years and I am 100% confident in that table. You could probably lift a small car with it.

As for stability.... I am not sure what you mean..... With the levelers properly adjusted my FLHRS can be 3.5' in the air and you couldn't tip it over if you tried. Whereas I don't care what 18" x 18" lift you put underneath it you can tip it over, it's simple physics.
