• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

WTB Hydraulic lift

RT-S PE#0194
Anyone know where I can buy a hydraulic lift that will hold the spyder? I have seen dozens that will hold regular 2 wheelers or smal ATV'S.

Thanks,

Spyder is only 800# Harbor Fraight have motorcycle lifts at 1,000# and 1,200# One is even compressor operated so you won't need to pump. I think $349 is the price and with a 20% off coupon, you'd walkout like you stolen it.
 
A nice thing about working on the Spyder is you can drive it up onto car ramps. Try that with a 2 wheeler!

The lift will give you more access tho, the ramps do get in the way sometimes.
 
does this go under the spyder ok? Specs say a 4 5/8" working height and ground clearance on spyder is listed at on 4 1/2".:dontknow::dontknow: haven't gotton down on ground to measure but was just checking.

You can easily drive up onto some pieces of wood to get that extra 1/8th".:spyder:

It should fit. Lowest clearance on the Spyder is in the front.

Matt,

That's it!!!! Where did you get it? How much? or would you sell it?

Thanks,

I wouldn't trust any tool from Harbor freight.

Sears sells a great ATV lift - and yes it's more than the HF unit - but as with anything - you get what you pay for.
 
Victor,

Try here: http://www.directlift.com/procyclexlt.asp

Then I extended the side panels out with some galvinized pipes. The only other thing it needs is to add some small tabs to the ramp to make it a little wider, the front tires are only on the ramp about an inch or two each side, but it works OK like it is.

I also have a Polaris RZR S I put up on it.

Matt,

Thanks for your help on this. I submitted a request to them for more information on getting one.

You haven't had to buy enough tools yet :-) I buy the good brands when safety is at issue or when I need the tool to take a lot of wear and tear. You just can't beat the price at Harbor Freight when you need a small gadget tool that really doesn't need to "do a lot of heavy lifting".:spyder:
