[8D]I HAD A THOUGHT SINCE I POSTED THIS LINK WAS TO WELD THE JACKS TO A 10 MILL STEEL PLATE SAY 500 X 250 THEN THERES NOT HOPE OF FAILURE FROM FALLING OVA PLUS WIT THE WEIGHT IT WOULD BE SUPER STABLE CHEERSquote:Originally posted by fimpBIKES
i dunno mate, i know they are big screw jacks
but i hate those evil fuckers
fold over with side load, had one under a van once changing a tyre and... [XX(]
it scares me thinking of the busted knuckles and the time it takes winding the bastard up. im happy to pay $200 not to have to wind a stand up lol
[^]FUNNY THING IS NOT EVERYONES GOT $200 BUCKS AND THIS GIVES THEM ANOTHER EASY ACCESS POINT TO MAKE THERE OWN STAND I USE THE ORIGINAL HANDLE TO WIND IT UP IT TAKES 30 SEC TO GET THE BIKE UP 1 PERSON JOB ITS THAT EASYquote:Originally posted by slickncghia

nah, the way i have had em fail on me is when the start to fold sideways (so in a forward/backwards direction the way you have then under the bike)
all the pivots go to jelly
but you've left yourself a fair safety factor there LOL
Rev the fucker!!!!!
i made sure the jacks were tight at the pivot points ,i had the same worries im going to build another version of the lift this week ,to allay everyones fears,
I wouldn't mind making one using the air jacks I used when doin a bit of work with a mobile mechanic - fuckin thing just about tossed small cars in the air though - lifted up trucks and everything was fuckin sick
If the front brake is locked on wouldn't that prevent any forward/backward movement of the bike anyway?
(Oh, and revhead: Typing in ALLCAPS is the equivalent to SHOUTING on a forum, and it's considered bad nettiquette, just FYI)
sorry bout the capitals that wont happin again,,actually didn know that ,cheers,,.ive had my bike up on it for 3 weeks with no wheels on her and it didnt move also i fitted up the front wheel today and the bike stayed perfectly still,and if front or rear brakes were locked ,it will be safer ,,
air jack thats fully sic how high could you get it hahaha[quote:Originally posted by 336LJ
