    • Wish I Had Bought This Sooner
Style: 1/2 Ton Transmission Adapter
I want to preface this review with the fact that I knew ahead of time that it would not fit my low-profile HF floor jack and that it would need to be modified in order to work with that setup. I was able to cut the arbor off and bore the correct sized hole in its place using my Bridgeport mill so that it would fit over the flange bolt that holds attachments to the HF jacks. This could also be done if you had the correct size drill bit, even in a hand drill. In this case I just used what I already had so as to avoid spending money on a large diameter bit I would likely only use once. I think Performance Tool is leaving a lot of sales on the table by not offering this same attachment with the correct sized hole for mounting to the HF jacks. Maybe they should offer this in the future since HF discontinued their own version. Now for the review itself. I found the transmission platform to be a good design that makes it far superior to other methods that I've used. These in the past have included using one or two floor jacks, a scissor-type transmission jack, and simply pulling the smaller transmissions out by hand. This method is far superior to all of those. Without even using the safety chain, the front drive transmission in my car was very stable and at no point did it wobble or try to fall off like all of the other non-transmission jacks I've used (also better than the scissor jack, which would try to tip over with heavier transmissions strapped to it). Another great feature of this that I used is the tilt adjustment to get the transmission and engine mating surfaces to line up perfectly. While the screw was difficult to turn with all that weight on it, it was way easier than muscling the transmission around using nothing but my own hands. Once I got everything lined up with this, it was fairly easy to get several bolts started and then proceed to slide it over the alignment dowels. The only feature I would add if I could is a screw that allows for side-to-side tilt adjustments, but it wasn't a big deal without it honestly. To sum this all up, this first transmission job using the attachment, which I performed alone, was the smoothest one I've ever done. Even with plenty of helping hands and extra sets of eyeballs around, you simply can't duplicate the features you get when you use this style of jack attachment (or an expensive transmission jack). Once you get everything where you want it, it stays there until you're ready to move it again. Attached to a heavy floor jack it's not tippy and it just works. Hopefully I'll never do a transmission without this tool again. It's a must have. ... show more

    • Do not buy. Get a real trans jack if you can
Style: 1/2 Ton Transmission Adapter
Do not buy. Be warned. I went back and forth and took the risk. big mistake/waste of time. this jack adapter is listed as 1000pound or 1/2 ton. The box/guide clearly say do not exceed 300 pounds. This thing will not fit your jack. We tried this on like 12 of my buddy's jacks, all different, no where close. the adapter diameter size listed for the hole is laughably incorrect. The build quality is sketchy. This thing has awful/scary welds. This thing will snap on you under load. the kit is missing pieces to boot which seems to be a common complaint. There are no real instructions, Just the basic picture of the adapter complete with a parts list. Do not buy. at best this wastes your time or could kill you at worst. ... show more

I own a 2008 H-D FLHRC (Road King Classic) and was looking for a jack that could handle this bike. When I received it, it was quite heavy (box was labeled, "Heavy object. Two person lift required." UPS had delivered it to my front door. However, I was able to drag the box to my garage, myself. The first thing I noticed was the box looked damaged with some holes appearing on the lid and at the bottom. I would recommend to Performance Tool to upgrade their shipping box. Once I opened it, I noticed things where bubble wrapped and two smaller boxes that held the hydraulic ram and the other box held the leveling bolts and tie downs. To my surprise I saw two bolt nuts just loosely lying at the bottom of the box. Thank goodness it didn't find it's way out of one of the holes on the shipping box. However, I started to wonder what parts were missing like the return spring, hex screws, or washers, after doing an inventory based on page 3 of the assembly instructions. To my surprise, after following these instructions, the "missing" items I just mentioned were already attached to the frame base already (that was a relief)! Please note that when assembling, use your metric tools (e.g., 13mm socket; 6mm hex; etc). On page 4, step 2, the ram support was already assembled and all I had to do was attach the safety lever. On that same page, steps 3 thru 6, was not needed, since the hex screw, return spring, pivot pit, and cotter pin was ALREADY attached to the hydraulic ram. Now I'm wondering if this was a returned item...oh well, I moved on to step 7 on page 5. Finally finished putting it together and it worked WELL! The most CRITICAL part is to ALWAYS align SAFETY BAR with the welded STOPS on the frame base. If you don't the bike begins to feel off balance while depressing the bigger pump pedal. It held the bike in all three positions (stops), and I tested it with the ram piston all the way down and the safety bar held it in-place (again, it's CRITICAL to "GENTLY depress the lowering lever (on the hydraulic ram ~ the smaller foot pedal) to allow the safety levers on the safety bar to LOCK in place (on the welded stops on the frame base). I've added some pictures of what I received and the use of this jack in ALL different positions. Would HIGHLY recommend this product! ... show more

    • Pretty impractical due to overall height
Style: 1/2 Ton Transmission Adapter
All said and done very impractical item. Due to construction height vehicle would have to very high in air to to allow trans in and out and the common floor jack will only go up so high to begin with. So ended up making a flat plate that mated directly to floor jack. Never will use with floor jack pretty much useless. ... show more

    • 300# capacity trans cradle, works well, but needs better assembly instructions
Style: 1/2 Ton Transmission Adapter
There are a lot of poor reviews of this transmission cradle, for me it did the job it was designed to do and it worked very well. The main body of the cradle is sturdy however some of the parts (chain hooks) seem a bit weak. This cradle fit my old Snap-On floor jack perfectly, I know others had trouble with it fitting their jacks. The instructions on assembly are poor, but I think if you are buying a transmission jack then you can figure it out, I did. The description is crap, this thing is NOT 1/2 ton, its max capacity is 300#, but I didn’t need it to hold that much weight so I found this cradle well worth my money. I never felt unsafe using this thing, it held my trans and transfer case no problem and I was able to easily maneuver everything around. ... show more
