Here's a picture to get you started. First one to correctly guess what the object is gets a boot to the head.

Looks like one of the two metal shipping braces that holds a two post lift together.

When I bought mine it had something like that on each side. The posts were laid opposite directions and bolted to each brace...
 
Wine ??? Only if it's Thunderbird.

Here it is in action. If any you of you guys have contemplated installing the engine, bottom up, this set up can't be beat. The motorcylce jack is very manuverable and raises up to meet the frame rails.

What is that green thing?
 
YY1 it's called a SpanSet, in my business we use these to bridle lighting truss, PA systems to chain Hoists to hang em in the air.....we use different colors to represent different weight tolerances/ limits, they as strong if not stronger than linked chain at half the weight, and a 1/4 of the expense

Tough as nails and quite versatile as well.
 
Thats a nice set up, Pete! I was trying to figure a way to do it with my 4 post lift, but couldn't come up with anything good. That rig you got might be the way to go, I'll have to keep my eyes out for a cheap lift, Ken
BTW is that the new shop? Looks like its filling up fast!:laughing4:

Thanks Ken. The motorcycle lifts are dirt cheap and have a 1500 lb. capacity as well. SEARS has them on sale every now and again for like $100. A few pieces of angle would make a nifty rear differential lift also. :headbang:


Yep, it's the new shop and yep, it is filling up fast !
 
I've used mine for gas tanks, trannys, rear ends and under the oil pan for support when needed. Very useful even after selling the bike
 
I dont know but would not want to sit on it angle irons UP.
