It looks like a Craftsman clone. Different paint color. It should do the job.

 The Craftsman M/C lift is far cheaper.
 I got mine for $80.00.

Check Harbor Freight for its version.  Same thing--just painted yellow.  If you watch the online sales it goes for about $60.00.  If you join the Harbor Freight mailing list you get an instant 20% coupon to use for the purchase.  End result is about $50.00.  Check it out.

I have one and it works great along with the steel adaptor that bolts to the underside of my Valk.

Thanks to all who commented, I've used or helped ones that have owned the H.F. lift which seems to be the same as the sears model. They didn't seem to be that rugged. I've found in the H.Duty equip work I do that OTC tools make the grade! Since I can order via work I got the OTC1545 Delivered yesterday for about a third more than the sears one! I'd sleep under it!!!  cooldude Has steel wheels, 3/16" metal frame, and is solid as a rock!

daytona,
Are you having a rear drive problem or swingarm issue?

Just a bald, won't hold air for long, Venom tire that leaks thru the side wall! Replaced with another venom and spare wheel. Easier than I thought.  Wink
