Nope. Get a cheap ATV lift.
Order Garage Products bushings BTW…then you will never do them again.

when I work on my quads in the garage, I just put 4 jack stands underneath it at each corner.

I'd love to have a pneumatic table for working on quads and snowmobiles, but it's not in my current budget.

I've got one of those Costco ATV lifts...probably the same can be had at Princess Auto or Crappy Tire....on sale for $100. Fits under the engine frame area and allows the removal of all 4 wheels and suspension front and rear...done it lots of times on several Canned Hams over the years (Gen1 and Gen2). When I change oils, I just leave the machine on it's tires.

Was at my sons tonight and drew up plans to build a very affordable lift table for the toys when done if it works out. Im going to build a couple and sell them.

I'm super happy with my lift. Bought on sale at PA. Can lift a quad or a bike and move around the shop with ease.
