midnightventure Posted January 13, 2008 #1 Posted January 13, 2008 I went to the junk yard and got two identical screw jacks and welded them together end to end. The jacks where pretty reasonable. Here are pictures with some measurments.
Black Owl Posted January 13, 2008 #2 Posted January 13, 2008 Interesting idea. How stable is it in the full raised position?
midnightventure Posted January 13, 2008 Author #3 Posted January 13, 2008 Thats an interesting question. I use it to stand the motorcycle up to check the oil and change the oil. I jack it up high enough to spin the tires and check air pressure but I never have took it to the highest level since I have a regular jack for that. I had it under the bike earlier today changing the oil and I wish I had jacked it up all the way to see but I didn't. Sorry.
