not a lift kit. a atv jack or lift. That is what i thought he said. To do maintenance on your atv you can lift the whole quad off the ground about 17 inches.

Not a lift kit.

Default atv lift

If anyone in the nearby Flushing Michigan area is interested in a Craftsman atv/motorcycle lift I have a brand new one I only used once to hold my Harley up while building. the lift has only seen the inside of my 12x12 work sheds wood floor and never been on pavement. the lift comes with the two craftsman tie down straps and the original receipt if anyone is interested. I will take $50 for the lift which is a great deal considering they retail for $99



oh and just so you guys know, watch out for those Harbor Freight lifts and the other cheap ones you see at some of the sams/costco warehouse type stores. they are not made the same as the better brand lifts. My uncle bought one from sams club and had his new Harley sportster on it and it almost gave out on him. the hydraulic lift wasn't any good or something, he told me he wishes he would have just spent the extra money and bought a good lift. just a thought for anyone thinking of going the CHEAP way out. just remember that you get what ya pay for.

I went down to harbor freight here in ABQ and bought one last weekend, on sale for $59.99....problem is on my 2005 Polaris it doesn't go under far enough, the Polaris is so damn big/wide, that it hits part of the machine when trying to lift it....

one good thing about harbor freight is that they have a really good return policy. I bought the two steel ramps last summer and returned them this past summer and bought the tri-fold ramp from them alot lighter and more useful. you could always return the lift and try another brand or model.

I bought the harbor freight atv lift yesterday for $30.00 bucks, the only problem is my nerf bars gets in the way. I bought this for when I put my +4 swing arm on. I will have to take one nerf bar off, other then that I like it.
