Hi I am going to remove my exhaust to have the headers ceremicly coated.
Can anyone tell me where I place the jack so I can lift the rear end.
I have the new Lehman LLS fitted. Cheers Eddie

Thanks wheels. The owners manual is for the old No Lean Axel, I have the new Independant Rear Suspension, Just looking at the two there is a big difference and I cant see anywhere to put the stands once I jack it up. I think my best bet will be to use the Tow bracket. Cheers
I jack mine up under trailer hitch, stands under axle.
Hi Guy's, No I wont put jacks under my new IRS, Thats why I am asking you all, where do I put the jacks now. I can jack it up under the tow bracket, but I am not sure that would be enough to hold it while I work on it. I dont want it dropping on me or to the floor. Cheers
When I had a IRS rear end I used the hitch ot sometimes the rear frame and then put a 6" or a 10" platform under the rear tires, then moved the jack to the front and raised the front end for easy clearance.
hope this helps you

Thanks Champsman97045 that sounds like it would work, I will give it a go.I only need the back end jacked up.
No zipper needed, I just didn't understand the need to use my comment for a history lesson, the thread was about IRS and the original poster seemed to understand my question & concern about dogman513's stand placement.

Aussie, I hope you got the info you needed to safely work on your trike, hope your exhaust turns out great. Sorry about this unhelpful extra stuff.
Hi 92fxsts, yes I think I have enough information to do the job, I am going to jack it up on the tow bracket and place blocks under the wheels. I will let you all know how it turns out. Cheers Eddie
Ive read this whole thing twice and clicked on the links and still don't know the proper way to jack up the rear of my IRS trike. I don't have a towing hitch to jack up on.

I use floor jack at the tie-down points. I suggest removing the tires to facilitate ease of access to exhaust. Once the tires are off, put jack stands under hubs and remove floor jack. I have a stock 2010 Harley Tri glide with the Lehman conversion. I am not sure if it's the same as yours. Good luck........Mark
