I am old and move slow and don't squat at all, Looking for an ATV lift, I am working on ATV's on a regular basis but not for a living, so lift would be nice
had mine for 8 years now, use it a LOT. haven't had a single issue. FWIW, there is a "better" one they sell, Craftsman Motorcycle Jack: Lift it Steady, Lift it Right with Sears
had that one first, returned it for the one you linked. the better one's lighter but the way the jack "Y's" to the lift point in the center makes it VERY unstable and wobbly.
Thanks, If there are others that people have experience with I would love to hear I wouldn't mind a table but that precludes some wheel work without other jacks correct?
I have one a use it on my ATV , lawn tractor , dirt bike.. its about 10 years old and the only issue I had was the handle to pull it around broke at the weld.. never fixed it, just use it. Its handy and multi-purpose for me. Sure beats trying to pick up a lawn mower and set it on jack stands..
I have the Craftsman 1500 lb MC/ATV jack. Only used it a few times and worked good for me. Sold ATV, traded MC on a trike - doesn't work for trike or my tractor/mower so it just sits in corner of shop. If you lived in N. IN would let you try it or buy it cheap.
Same company makes several different brands. They all hold up pretty well. I used to work on 90cc race quads for kids. I used a taller scissor style motorcycle lift . They don't have the weight capacity this one does though it was nice having everything at workbench height. If money isn't an issue I would look for a used pneumatic lift like the pro's use. More height and sturdier. If money is a concern the lift you are looking at will do the job.
I have the an aluminum one very similar to what Darkkevin linked that I bought from Harbor Freight a few years ago. I use it to lift my Side X Side about 1,300 lbs and love it.
I've been looking at the harbor frieght one and was hoping it wasn't too cheap but I don't do daily work just wanting something to help when I do work on them
How wobbly is the system, As in
If I take off the front wheels off do I need to take the back wheels off to keep it from tipping?
