Default Borrow a jack?

Gday everyone,

I need to do some work under the cruiser, well actually alot. Wondering if anyone has a high lift jack i could borrow for a week? Would make my job 500times easier but i dont want to spend $600+ dollars on one if im not going to use it lots, Basically need a jack that has 500+mm lift prefer 600mm and will hold 2t

Changing out all my suspension, shocks, rotors, axel seals, brake lines etc etc.

If anyone knows someone with a decent jack that i could borrow that would be fantasic, Payment along the lines of beer etc

Can pick up from pretty much anywhere, im in the Como/manning area.

Cheers

PM, call or msg me on 0448771117

Julian

I have one that is not functioning at the moment. I think the oil has leaked out of it or something. Free if you want to have a look at fixing it. Pm me.

You may be fixed up by now, but this is the sort of jack I have used for a while - they come in handy all the time, worth spending about $200. This is a 2500 kg with about 480mm lift. If you need more lift use a well-fitting block of wood to take it a bit higher in steps. the main thing is to have a set of Heavy Duty stands, the jack is just a method of getting the vehicle up on to the stands.

SCA Trolley Jack - 2500kg - Supercheap Auto Australia

I cant believe that Malz want $600 for a trolley jack - must be something special about that one - just the wheels?

Edit: Ah, I see they also have the "economy" range (3000kg $170):

The $600 jack is more professional quality.

Cheers.

I just bought a lifted Pajero and carry around a 2.5T trolley jack that weighs about 50kg. Kincrome do a highlift jack for about $100... can't wait to get one. 35+kg weight reduction here I come!
