Cheap front end lifter (Pitbull substitute )
« on: June 30, 2016, 03:44:38 AM »
I am posting pictures of how to lift the front end if you don't have a jack or Pitbull stand. You can substitute milled timber for branches or what ever is on hand if you are out in the bush. Ratchet straps can be substituted for cam straps or even rope.  Chock up the front wheel first, then ratchet strap on both sides ( it might work with one side but I have not tried it ).Then remove chock, if you need more clearance out in the bush place the front wheel over soft soil and dig a hole. if you need more clearance if you are removing the forks remove the back wheel.I use the posted method when I don't want to remove my belly pan.
