Has anyone here purchased the scissor jack stabilizer from CW? The picture that they show on their website has a weird crank handle attachment that would not allow me to use my cordless impact and 3/4 in. socket that I use to stabilize the rig. I need to replace one since I tweaked it last month in a driveway .
Here is a pic of the CW Stabilizer. I need the one with the 3/4 in. hex head on the end of the screw.

No, the lug that you see on the end of the screw is round with one hole in the end and one hole on the side that the handle kind of threads through to allow cranking. My stabilizers have a hex head on the end for use of drills etc..........

You can buy the ones with the 3/4 bolt head on them, just need to check around. If you already have these jacks then the new ones will just bolt on to the existing mounts, no welding.

I replaced both of mine that were like this on the Terry so I would have the bolt heads and be able to use the drill motor. Much easier! I bought two for 60 some dollars.

Those CW sissor jacks look pretty cheezy. You might want to consider these

On my last Weekend Warrior I purchased these and bolted them to the frame. Very easy.

CP! No...don't do it!!

Dang...hope I got to you before you put the CC out on an order....sheesh...it may be a little more money, but the one (and I wish I could find a quick picture other than the one we got on the SLC) you want is the one piece unit that welds across the back in one piece...I think they're made by BAL. Priceless- first, they tuck within themselves ALOT better for ground clearance, and they don't have a funky wrench you gotta use to screw 'em up and down.

Man...I hope I got to you before you bought those POS units...GUYS: steering our fellow members in the wrong direction! WhatamIgonnadowitchoo!?!?!?!?!?!

WW, I would agree with you EXCEPT he already has these types on there so all he has to do is unbolt and replace them. If he changed to the BAl you are talking about he'd have to change the mounts and all that. I agree, I like the Bal on mine but its not a single piece, its separate on each side but still better than those scissor jacks like I have on the Terry although they do ok now that I don't have to use the crank.

VR: I didn't see those in his pics- are you sure?! Here's what I'm talking about:



Couple of welds and you're good to go!! Note how they tuck up almost inside the frame so they don't drag. I love ours! And they have a hex screw end for the Makita/Dewalt/Milwakee/Ryobi/B&D!!

Scotter: I like your idea...it's a DW and a DK deal!!
