Jacks
Budgie:
When you say "it been looked after" does that include greasing the mainshaft so that the mechanisum runs up & down smoothly?
I always give my Hi-Lift a good greasing before a trip (keeps the rust away as well as mine sits on the roofrack), it makes a mess of your gloves but better than it not working as it should. :wink:
These can be a dangerous piece of kit if not opporated correctly or in good working order and it's better to go for the best rather than the cheapest IMHO!
landyman Ash:
Hi lift without a doubt.
Just another point to remember. I bent my hi-lft and ARBRIL (the importers) replaced it free of charge after 3 years or use!!!!
Now that is service!!!
Its Hi-lift for me I'll tell you that! :D
abinitio:
Personally its hi-lift for me, nearly damaged myself on evil farm jacks in the past so won't touch them with barge poles:-)
gords:
I can appreciate that many people recommend hi-lift over "xyz-lift" - but does anyone have any specific reasons (rather than personal preferences) to do so?
Can a hi-lift do something that no other type can? Are they made of different material(s)? Are they rated for different lifting weights? Do the "others" have known problems?
Sorry, but I tend not to be a person to buy a product solely based on who makes it :wink:
