Gday Barry
Gee $265 .00 for a jack that you might use now and again . I can see the good side , but if you can undo wheel nuts , you can turn a handle. I hope that's not to hard on you ,but others will let me know.

Not much info out there on Google from what I can see on this jack. What are the reasons you want to get something like this? I don't know how safe those scissor jacks are on a 4x4 since you are likely going to be extending it to the max to get a tyre off ?

I Purchased this one over 12 months ago and have found it great.
Lifts the van easily.
However do note that it is unwise to get under the van when jacked up.
Great for changing wheels etc plus the impact wrench works
well.
12v Jack & impact wrench.
