I bought a bike lift adapter from pitbull lifts for the Tri glide and tried it today it works great. The bike lift is a old Black Jack but the adapter worked fine on this lift.

see pics.. ThumbUp

Thanks for the pics, it's good to know the adapter works. I have a Pitbull Jack, I'll be contacting Pitbull about getting one to use when servicing my wife's new Triglide.

No Problem. I found to position the lift first then install the adapter from the other side of the bike next. They do include instructions. Price was 58 bucks and free shipping.

Good Luck

Hello, I am considering ordering the Pit Bull lift, wondering how much effort and time it takes to operate the jack. Would you recommend the air model?

Wonder if it would work on a J&S jack.It looks almost like the Pittbull.

as long as you have strenght in your leg its no problem..I use a bar in my bottle jack with my arm and have no problems lifting the bike. about 2-3 minutes tops to raise it all the way.

it has a lip in the adapter that slides onto the jack lip. my lift is not a pitbull and the adapter works fine on it..

Here's a couple Pics of the adapter on my Pit Bull lift.

Here's a side shot showing the lip that hooks the lift rail.

Has anyone used the J&S jack, does it work on a TriGlide? Thanks

I looked up the jack..I dont think that optional adapter from pit bull would work on a J&S jack..I also would not think it would lift the trike..

Mine would lift the trike but not the whole bike without the adapter

The adapter for the Tri Glide appears high, will it roll under or have to be inserted afterward ? Thanks, I will have the new Pit Bull jack.

you will have to insert it afterwards..its real simple..just make sure to align the jack/adapter into positon

Looks like it would work on a two wheeler fine,not on the trikes.

If you want to use a J&S jack you would have to unbolt the left frame pad and add two 1 1/2 " angle iron drill holes to match the lift arm and yer all set

Yes, I have bought a few things from Harbor Freight that were a bit scary!

I have the J&S jack.it will not lift the trike(just the front) and the tubeing on the J&S is square not angle so i doubt it would work.I e-mailed J&S to see if they were going to design an adaptor but never heard back

I used a simple Sears Craftsman to get mine up but boy was that sketchy! I have photos in an album on here. I looked at the Pitbull model at the big bike show we just went to, $400 at the show for the basic, manual lift. Never mentioned an adapter though. Which part of the trike does the adapter support? Fore or aft?
