Nice shop and lift setup.
Looking good, what kind of lift is that by the way?? Curious how you got the rear wheels on it since it looks like a single lift
All for now Trampas
Its a Handy lift that I modified by fabricating some pans from sheet metal, since the the lift had a 1 3/4 hole on both sides in the back I drilled a 1 3/4 in both pans then I bolted one pan on then slid a 1 3/4 black pipe thru the hole until it bottomed out then measured the width of the other pan then cut the pipe so it would just clear the inside of the uninstalled pan, reinstalled the pipe bolted the pan on and it just so happens that when the trike is on the pipe is all most dead center of the wheels. As far as removing the wheels I put two bottle jacks under the tie down loops then jack it up and place jack stands under the trunk area.

Looks good, I wondered if they were welded on or bolted. Does the lift have any trouble with the weight of a trike ?
