| | Posted : 09 Sep 2015 - 19:44 Post title : Thunderbird Floor Jack Adapter | | | Just finished testing a floor jack adapter. Most know that I love to test products before I support them, especially custom items. I also like to support business the way folks supported me. There is a new product that I have just completed trying out. I must say I love it and this is an honest assessment of this product.
Product is called Jack-Be-Quick . It is made by a fellow Triumph Thunderbird owner who came up with a nice product for jacking the bike up. In my testing it exposed the need for options that will allow for the variations that exist due to changes customers make, CAT, CAT-Less, lowering etc. Bob has made the accommodations and produced a product that rocks, more important it meets the need for lifting the bike, both front and back. Home run for the DIY folks.
My modifications; extreme lowering and CAT-Less with Hogslayers required a re-work of the JBQ to fit and Bob made it happen and came out with a product that I love. It stays in place, affording you opportunity to jack the bike up with most any jack even when on the road when away from home if needed. Have a look, made in US, not China, well done quality product.
Details:
Both front and rear units are available now. This is not an advertisement just the results of my personal testing which sort of is but only way to let you know what I found. If interested let me know I will give you more details.

Stays out of sight better. You will need to buy & use the purpose made no-cat adapter for lifting but I think it is worth it. My LT doesn't have the charcoal canister which seems standard on US models but you'll need to check yourself.

Just ordered up a different jack after VABird pointed out in a photo I sent him that my current jack was cracked.
I ordered up a new one off Amazon, a different brand and got a stellar deal for two because I need two when working on different bikes. This new jack works perfectly with JBQ, especially the front is totally stable. The adjustable points fit the JBQ as if they were made for it. The quality is exceptional. Base has tabs that make it even more stable.
For those looking for a shop jack this one is tops and with JBQ it makes lifting the bike safe and not cobbled together or risky. I use them while the bikes are on a lift so stability is even more crucial to me. This IS the best set up combination I have tried. NO doubt about it.
I removed my radiator cover to get a better shot. I also have a road bar on there too, which made normal jacking a bit tricky.
