I read in a thread how valued milk creates are for working on your bike. I have never used one. I guess they are handy to place under the bike as a temp lift. Can someone enlighten me to the uses. I have a few around in the garage, so I might as well get some use out of them. Thanks

there basicly used to hold the engine.
good for removing it.
you undo the bolts and lift the frame right off.

nice and easy

I think most people use them as generic stands for the frame, but I would caution putting too much weigh on them. Milk crates vary in strength and they've been getting thinner more and more as the years go by.

Darrin puts his on the front of his gixxer to carry his milk in.

I use it as an ASS jack

The milk crate in on the back. The flower basket is up front...

Yeah, after my engine was on it for a bit it kinda started to cave in a bit.

I use them for parts bins.

The really good ones have a metal band around/near the top on the outside fo the crate. Shop around. They are handy things to have around.

LOL funny stuff

Besides putting an engine or a frame on them, I gotta say...........they are great for carrying milk.....


sorry guys, had to to it.
