Decent high lift jack

[craig180]

Anyone know where I can get one?

It's proving to be a real pain in the ass using several small jacks and blocks to get lowered cars up in the air to work underneath!

I particularly want one that is flat/low enough to get under lowered saxos without having to drive up onto blocks!

lol, think we were both getting that link at the same time.........if only i hadnt altered the channel on the tv lmao

[craig180]

That is exactly what i'm looking for! How high does it lift?

[J222JRA]

376mm Craig.......i find it plenty to get the car on axle stands.

[craig180]

Hmmm, needing something that will lift about 50cm or more so I can get under the car in one go

[J222JRA]

Only problem is the higher the jack goes the higher it is to start with craig. Would just mean you would have to put it on block first then use the jack.

Very, very good but might be abit pricey... About £200-£250 if i remember correctly... but not when you're a Draper supplier ;)

I'm assuming mark up on these will be iro 40-50 % so if I could get one for less that 150 I'd be happy

I've got this one. I find I don't need to drive up on blocks to jack it up, but i'm only down 30mm and use 50 profile tyres. Lifts the car up way higher than most others, I've also got one of the low profile ones but it pretty much useless for anything more than a wheel change.

cosco jack.

Alot of people use them, they are also sold on ebay (arcan jack)

Cant fault mine, you wont get many that will lift a car 500mm. I wouldnt want to be under a car 500mm in the air on just a jack either.

[craig180]

I always use stands and usually ramps infer the wheels incase all goes tits up but at the mo im doing one lift up onto jacks then having to use bricks or blocks to raise it up a bit further before settling on stands.

One lift would save me loads of time

I got a low-slung aluminium one from Costco for 60 quid. Its a beast, the saddle is huge, its light to transport (you can lift it with one hand), the pole breaks down into two bits and it goes under a lowered Saxo no problem.
