Ah, OK. So what sort of money would people expect to pay for the real thing?

I got mine off a bloke on alt.fan.landrover for £30. There are some real bargains to be had second hand if you're in the right place at the right time.

Yes, well, I'm normally nowhere near the "right place" when bargains like that come along :roll: Either that, or the "right time" was yesterday :roll:

Changing the direction of this thread again, slightly ... what is the main purpose of hi-lift jacks? I know they "lift up high", but why is that good ... in 4x4 offroading terms?

Gords - yesterday I had first hand experiance of winching with a hi-lift, very slow and hard work, but it does work. I'll post some pics when I get five mins spare.
