Mojack?? or alternative

[jekjr]

Why would you have to raise your mower daily?

To change blades. In the Summertime in Lower Alabama when you cut Bahiah grass you get about 6 hours max before a set of blades is very dull.

We also cut Bahia, every backyard there is in all the sub-divisions has Bahia grass. Bahia grass shouldn't dull a blade in 6 hrs that's ridiculous. If your sharpening blades that often you must buy the cheapest blades in the world or your doing something wrong some where.

Harbor Freight has mower lift for $89.99 plus shipping. I'm thinking about getting that or mojack from northern tool.

Pretty sure I'm going to HF tomorrow and get the lift, or at least look at it in person. If I decide to buy it and for some reason be dissatisfied, I'll just simply return it.

If you're considering buying one, look online for FREE 25% off discount coupon codes. Just do a google search. If you order online there's only a $6.99 flat rate shipping charge and you won't have to pay taxes. With the coupon code and the shipping fee I can get it for $74.xx delivered to my door. Only thing bad is the waiting game. But if you go in the store you'll have to pay taxes, which probly wouldn't be much more than ordering online. If it will safely lift my Super Z then there shouldn't be any reason not to like it and would surely feel that I got a super deal. Just can't go wrong with that price.. But if it ever has weld or bending/weakness problems I have a brother and a good friend who can take care of that.

If I buy it and get to try it out on the Super Z tomorrow, I'll post results and pictures.

I can have the Mojack delivered to my house for from Northern tool so my total would be $240. Then Northern Tool also sells the work bench attachment for working on pushmowers for $100 plus shipping cost.

Right now Im on my hands and knees working on stuff on a concrete floor. I have stool on wheels thats adjustable made by craftsman. I need to get this and then save up the $5k for actual lift for the riding mowers/zero turns.

Yeah well when it is knee deep and it is raining everyday ay it will dull bus hog blades. I guess y'all's mowers are better than ours. It will do it with Oreagon blades and with Kubota Blades. The guys that run them say it does it with Gator Blades as well.

A zero turn stretched out will cut several acres in 6 to 8 hours. Bear in mind few yards in our part of the world are cut more than very two weeks.

I have seen guys run blades till they left a streak on the middle before they took them off and threw them away without changing them.

In my opinion mower lifts like the mojack or pro lift are just a pain in the azz. You still have to lay under the mower and the the lift just gets in the way. You can't use it to change a tire.

I am real lazy cause I use a cordless impact as well. That is the only thing I have that gets the ZG222 high enough to use it. My ZD 326 has it's own lift. It raises it's self with a crank.

I have a wooden 4X4 screwed to one of my celling cross braces. From there I have two removable wooden 4X4s that go to the floor. I have a chain on the celling 4X4 which I hang a come-along from. I have used this system for years and pulled a good many car and truck engines from it also. I have used this same system in other places also and find to lift a mower or motorcycle all I need is wooden 2X4s.
