There is always one boasting  :roll:  :lol:

Thanks for the one sensible answer James, any other makes of Farm Jack, I'd be interested in any differences. I've got Jackall and Hi-Lift now which are the main makes.

datalas:
last time I looked into it the two I was sat looking at (a hi-lift and a farm jack ISTR) were manufactured in vastly different ways,  one was cast steel, the other rolled.  From what I know this makes a big difference when using the jack at the outer limits of what it's supposed to be used for.

Now, personally I don't really like hi-lift jacks (not the manufacturer the verticle ladder crawling things whihc are all commonly called hilifts) at the best of times, so I've always been tempted to hang the expense and spend the extra couple of quid and get the make which defines the name of the object...

Then again, I hate having to do the hoovering just as much and have an electrolux.  Go figure :?

datalas:
come to think of it,  a proper hi-lift is like £38 ( http://www.devon4x4.com/shop.php?mode=productview&product=82 )

... why are we having this discussion :)

Oh,  btw..  No accesories (especially mounting brackets) aren't usually interchangable between makes :(
