Well I bent some tube and cut up an old bent floor jack and stuck it all together and here is what I ended up with....still need to make adjustments on the front you will see. and make adjustable height axle brackets to make installation a breeze. I was able to pick up the axle 450lbs of it and tote around the on the jack it is very stable and easy to steer. With the cart handle on one end and the jack handle on the other it is easy to work and move around while under the jeep.
here is the ol bent up floor jack I decided to use for the project..rated at 25,000 lbs it should do the trick...LOL
I managed to modify the lawn cart and was able to reatain the top for hauling stuff around, it attaches with small hitch pins
remove the top and install the axle arm
It raises 14" and the arm remains level
Here is the 450 lb axle on the cart
The jack easily raises the axle, the only problem is with large axle like this the rear of the axle main support hangs up on the pinio housing. I will cut it off tomorrow and figure out adjustable arm perches and pinion perch
It rolls easily on the pneumatic tires.
