Default E-Z Up Center Stand & J & S Lift

I love my center stand and J & S lift but unfortunately with the center stand on the lift is not longer stable, what have others of you done that have E Z Up center stands on ? THANKS

Call the folks at J and S. They are to have rubber strips that fit on their jack with allows the jack to be used with the centerstand. It's not yet on their website but they did tell me they have them.

Why don't you just shim the front of the jack with a piece of 3/4" plywood to even it out? That's what I do and the bike is very stable.

the problem with the e z up is the bolt that holds the stand on is on the underside , so not only is the back now lower than the front but the back left is lower than the back right

Default Pitbull fits!

My Pitbull just fits between the EZUP bolt and the rear. It's a tight fit getting it under but will fit if you hold the bike more upright when you slide the lift under.

I looked at the Pitbull web, it looks like the Pitbull has 2 skinny rails per side so I could see how the skinnier rail would fit behind the bolt, the J & S has a single wide rail per side and it won't fit

Like Hover says, shim the front rail of the jack with 3/4" plywood and place the rear rail under the folded legs of the stand. Works for me and it's as solid as a rock.

ok , I didn't see how shimming would work, but putting it under the legs makes sense
