Will a Cessna style spring gear jack pad work?

Will a Cessna style jack pad work with the spring gear on my KF IV?

[SkyPirate]

you might have to shim the sides , I think the Cessna steel spring gear is wider

[beeryboats]

I wondered about that. I also see that there is an adjustable pad as well. I may try and build one out of hardwood.

I use one of these, its a step/ jack point/ wheel chock all in one, hope it comes thru

Think i got it this time

Thanks, I saw that on an other posting. It looks great, I just don't have the metal tools or skills to weld something like that.

easiest thing to use if you have a good floor jack is a 2 x 6 or 4 x 4 .

between the gear and up against the axles -- if you just want one side jacked move the jack off centre a bit.

If you have cherry picker or overhead crane lift at engine mount next to firewall.

If these were available, I would buy one.

I sent that photo to a friend of mine to see if he could come up with something for me. If he can build them, who else would be interested in owning one of their own? No idea on cost yet.
