Get out your welders

Pretty cool tilt jack!

Bet that puts plenty of stress on these newer mower frames! I wouldn't use it on anything I own.

I like this idea as a few others that I could fabricate. I want something simple, quick to get out, use & put away. Here's another version similar to what you posted. I would adapt a fitting for using an impact gun rather than cranking.

I agree Kenny. It really puts a twist on the frame. Heavier built GT may take it but is built much to light for that.

Well, that’s neat. Good exercise. Use the other arm next time. Hehe.
So what about if there was a bar across to the front wheel, some how, to take a lift too. And still have it out of the way to get to the deck. ?

Front axles pivot, still stress/twist on the frame!

 

[Propane1]

Well maybe put a wedge block in on top of front axle and frame to keep solid, then both front and rear axles lift at the same time Kenny.

I still wouldn't use it. Don't want to 'buy' a machine that I am fixing for someone! I have my lift that works much better that that with out the stress/distortion!

 

[Propane1]

Ok. Show me your lift, Kenny. I think I have an idea what you have.

I have the Pro Lift.


You lift an axle. I can nearly stand one on end with this!

 

[Propane1]

Ya. That’s better. And safer.

Seem like everyone is trying to invent a new mouse trap. Not sure what I think of that one. Definitely looks like a trap..!

Good grief if your frame won't take that you better not sit on the tractor or it'll bend the frame too.

Here's the one I like the most. It's mostly used for zero turns grabbing under the deck. It could be used for Gt's. To be used on all my tractors I need to figure out how to slide the arms apart from 12 to 16" so it grabs between the wheel hub & rear end. I have a few ideas.
