I dont know why people need to spend all that money on the jack when it lifts the quad like 6" off the ground. I would understand if you had a 600lb. ute. Its not that heavy with a sport quad. I use a router table It lifts the quad as high the other tip-up stands.

why do you need a jack stand for a bmx bike?? What does that have to do with lifting a quad up?

i put 2 jack stands in the rear, with cardboard on them so it doesnt scratch up the axle, and i use one up front under that bar that is right behind the bumper.

Then find a stronger one:macho

I had my 250r on a cheap milk crate, and I came home one day to find the whole (well as together as it is) quad tilting to one side so bad that it was almost falling over. I shoulda taken a pic it looked funny.

LOL I had the same problem. It worked great for awhile until it got too hot in the garage and softened the plastic.

Years ago I had a nice aluminum crate, wish I still had that one. It was a little bit taller than the regular ones too.

I use the AC quad lift. Lift the quad to aboot wiast height. I love it.:D It also fols next to flat so I take it almost everywhere with me. It is also good for your suspension since it takes all the pressure off of them while it just sitting there.;)

I use this one:

It is awesome! And makes all my friends jealous. It is made extremely well. I paid $189 for it, but I see them on ebay now for $100.
Worth every penny as I can move the quad around the garage with one hand.
SWEET!:D
