    Put in a 1978 Marlette mobile home with a side garage, work perfect then you can be known as the trailer trash in the neighborhood. :roflmao::roflmao:

    Plus you can leave one part of the side skirting open for the dog. :D

    It does look like a nice table. The best part of it is that it comes with a free service scissor jack. :D

    Those are a must if you even want to check air pressure, clean wheels or even change a tire. Good deal, you will like it.

    It is a super nice table. It weighs like 500 lbs. it's really heavy.
    You need somewhere that a forklift can unload it off a tractor trailer.
    I had Chuchtx to help e.
    He has a freind that has a tractor with forks on it.
    Chucktx had to drive the tractor like 3 miles nd pick it up.
    I loaded it on my 6x12 trailer. Man was that tough.

    Backed the trailer upo the garage door.
    Nearly never got it off the trailer. It's heavy.
    It's worked great for like over 3 yrs.

    I don't need any Brownie points.
    Just like djl wanted to point out a great 1500 lb lift table for a good price.

    Yep, I have that all squared away. I will load it into my enclosed trailer up to my garage and then will have to carry it a short distance into the garage. Of course with the help of Hot Rider! :roflmao:

    Get the dimensions and dig a hole.

    Seriously it will help you load bike
    Getting up in lift is tough and by yourself getting off then getting it tied down.

    If it was level with floor wi be easier

    That's why I like my side extensions, makes it a whole lot easier. I know of another guy who built some side extensions out of wood just to help when riding it up on the lift.

    Get yourself some long pipe and then you can roll it across the ground to where your going to set it up.

    I am sure that it does. It will just have to wait for a bit.
