Hi Guys,
My old 2000kg el cheapo trolley jack is at the point of death. It's or
mine maybe! So l want to replace it - it won't lift the corner any more!
Where's a good place in Greensboro / Eltham area (Vic) to get a good 'home use' trolley jack rated at say 2250 - 2500kg for picking up the 80?
Ebay have some AS compliant 2250kg rated jacks with quick pedal at about $170, Repco (chinese) equiv is about $450.
Must haves:
Low initial height for wife's car
500mm lift for 4B
Rotate handle to lower
Quick pedal would be nice too.
Oh - Low $$$$
Cheers
BoB

Have you topped up the oil in it - just get a small bottle of Jack Oil - theres usually a screw of the side of the barrel for topping up.
