High Position Motorcycle Lift

Would it work as good or better than a MoJack?

Check this out. I bought one of these 2 weeks ago and it puts everything I've seen in a lift to shame. It is built a lot sturdier than the Mojact or it's equivilent in a bottle jack lift. It has safety catches so you can let the mower down against them and it is stronger side to side. The cost with the T-Handle and shipping came to about $268.00 but it is built that much stronger than the rest. I've been impressed so far. Good Luck! J&S Jacks. Just Google them to find their information.

Hey NICE find... I had not seen these before... TurfBuddy Lawnmower Lift - J & S Jacks

And their youtube clip... : The TurfBuddy Riding Lawn Mower Lift from J&S Jacks - YouTube
If I didn't have a tractor with front loader & forks... I'd seriously look at them. :smile:KennyV

The difference between Tractor Supply and J&S Jacks Turf Buddy is that J&S is rated at 800 lbs and Tractor Supplies is rated at 300 lbs but even more is the side stbility difference. Lets just say that I looked at TS first and bought the J&S after much delliberation. Glad I did.

i just seen a new one at northern tool looked good and easy crank lift for about $150

Besides Mojack and Prolift, Ohio Steel has a zero turn lift that has a capacity of 1200 lbs. Lifting a zero turn of this weight would be difficult, but most zero turn mowers come in around half that weight, so I think of it as extra security. Just another option out there that you may not have considered.

I always use a com-a-long from the beam in my shed with a nylon strap around the front wheels to lift mine. It raises it up till the skid pan hits the ground and you can work from the front or either side with nothing in the way. Can change blades in just a few minutes.

I do same thing but with a chain hoist.
I always throw a jack stand under it while I'm under there.

I use a 1/2 Ton Chain Block from Harbor Fright ( 39 Bucks ) and a couple Straps to Lift my Mowers, it fast and nothing in the way on the floor, I have a Impact & can swap out blade in 2 shacks, those of you that have to change your blade on the run, i can under stand why you would want one of the other kind of Lifts

My ZD 326 has a lift built in on the front end of the mower. I am looking forward to seeing how good it works.
