12volt car jacks

doesn't sound to save to me unless you have a mini

Hi Al

very good for caravan levelling in place of the wind down units

Well bugger me!

I thought I was a bit on the lazy side but the 12 volt jack would take some beating. Wonder how you keep the sand out of the motor?

Methinks a hydraulic bottle jack would be just as effortless, bearing in mind you still need to slap the deck to get the jack underneath anyway.

No prize for that one!

Gramps!!, it would be just as painfull farting around with leads and a short bloody circuit....lol.


Cheers Axle.

Ah, I love it Gramps.

ROTFLMAO!!!

Now if you got 3 of them for a c/t and mounted them permanently instead of the stabilizers at the rear and 1 at the jocky wheel area ,how good would that be for leveling on uneven ground ?? blo-dy brilliant !!

I stopped off at a Rest area just on the North side of the Yule River on the North West Coastal Hwy, 50Ks South of Pt Hedland about Feb' this year , had to dump a couple bottles so walked over to the Bin and I seen this Gadget dumped in the bin, Didn't know what the hell it was , I could see it had wiring attached so I hauled it out for an inspection , It was then I could see it looked like the old scissor type jack with a little motor on it , I thought the concept was a great idea but it had Made In China sticker on it, No wonder it was in a bin , But hell mate don't let my post stop you from wasting $69 , ....

Have seen a few people who have the diamond/screw type jack and just whack a cordless drill on it. Quick and easy.

Has to be a fairly beefy cordless I suppose but one bloke I saw had the whole job done quick as a wink. Just a matter of having the right driver attachement for the drill to fit the screw of the jack. Maybe a fairly fine thread on the jack helps too by reducing the speed/lift ratio a bit.

Sounds like maybe time to experiment in the garage a bit.

Find a space in your little truck for a Trolley Jack with 1800kg capacity lift. Should spend around $50-$70 dollars. It works for me!

Cheers

Hey if ist good enough for the V8's then I want a pneu....neu....oh well one that works off a compressor on each corner, get a flat - hey presto change the wheel, get bogged - jack it up an put stuff under.....surely its possible, and probably not much heavier than a highlift, a bottle jack, etc etc.....how good wold that be to be able to lift the car 8 inches or so at the flick ov a switch...........time for another dark and stormy

Al, a man of your wealth in super could probably look to an air ram in every corner, just like the Bathurst cars. With Endless Air from Lucy it could lift the car before you got out.

Much better than those powered scissors

G'day to ya Al,unless you wan't touse it for something other than lifting your wheel then buy it,if not don't bother. I bought one (1000) flat out lifting one wheel on the Zuk,could not budge the dulls on the m/home.
P.s how have you been?.
Cheers Bob.

P.p.s,the brand of my jack ic Shentai.

Iwas the one sucker who fell for the easy way out with the jack,but what the heck that is why i am still working so i can pay for these gadgets.Lol
Cheers Bob.
