Bought me a new trolley jack

[madgaz]

WooHoo...seen as any 165 is in the air more than on the ground I thought it was time to invest...

...got a 3 ton trolley jack from costco for only 60 quid

It has low entry at 89mm and lifts to 550mm...

...fookin marvelous for that money

Weighs 40kg though...nearly broke my back putting it in the shopping trolley

Should have opened another one to lift it in there for ya ;-)

Well if I could have picked one of those up for 60 quid I would have done

But I couldn't have anyway cos we're moving soon

Nice one Gaz, I too have invested in lifting hardware, I now own a 2 tonne engine hoist with load leveller!!!

It weights like 90kgs and is a bit big, but its red an shiney so I likes!

don't secondhand car lifts suffer from pivot pin failure

[nick280]

I'm quite lucky in the way that my garage is soooooooooo big everybody just leaves there kit with me because they know the work is going to get done here anyhow

I have a 2 tonne & 3 tonne trolley jack, 1 tonne engine crane, 500kg engine stand, 2 tonne axle stands and 3 tonne axle stands.

Nobody left a 2 poster lift yet though, I'm working on that one though :lol:

I guess any second hand equipment could have any/some catastophic failure of some kind

My second hand car however has NOT suffered brake failure yet

And as for your garage Nick...you lucky lucky bar steward
