Ive lost or misplaced an article I had twenty-five years ago about a very small three piece screw jack that was made for your tool bag . It had a flat base witha hole in the middle , the jack body has a tit on the bottom and top, the tit on bottom fit in the hole in the base. The tit on the top fit in a hole on the frame. I think the hole on the frame was in a added bracket that resembled the bracket for the footboard and it was welded underneath the bike around the seat post I think . It's been so long since I've seen it. What I want is part number for jack and part number for weld on bracket. I would also like to know which years the bracket came stock on the frames I thinkit was like a ten year period but I'm not sure. I would like to reperduce these since they made so few. I don't think they worked that great. You were supposed to jack up bike then as quickly as possible put something more stable under bike for support. People were trying to change tires using only jack .....ouch . In the pictures I saw it looked like a good idea when you were alone in the middle of nowhere with no blocks of wood or rocks . Let me know if anyone has this information

These were stock on some Duo-Glides. You have to have the tube sticking out the side of the frame to use it. I usually simply lay my bike on it side when repairs are needed. Make sure you have the side with your battery vent up.Be sure to visit;

I've heard mention of these, but have never seen a picture. Does anyone have a picture of the jack and the tube sticking out of the side of the frame?1964 FLH

Do you have the part number for it and any information on the corresponding bracket on the bike.
You are still not getting it. there is no "bracket" it fits directly into the Duo-Glide frame. If you frame is later or has been modified it has no where to go!

So, how do you raise just one, upon only one jack position?
Have someone sit on the other wheel?
The pivot point raises the rear easily, as it is to the rear.
What's the trick for the front?

Thanks Rub, Thats the jack I was asking about last July, only I was calling it a Pan frame jack. Must be rare, I got no response on it.
I thought I had the upper part but mine looks nothing like the pic you sent. Looks more like an oversized valve guide driver with a hollow tube instead of a solid handle/driver.
Would you consider posting dimensions for the parts you have?
Thanks, Kerry
