Smego... you know how I can get a clamp end for the Jackall... can't find them anywhere and I want to make sure I can winch with the thing!

Hi lift for me.  The Jackall if genuine is good but the accesories for the Hi-Lift make it a no-brainer.

Mine is the black 5' and because I keep it stripped down the standard will sit neatly in the very front of the rear footwell, so if I open either at the front it will slide out from behind the seat.

Disco Matt:
Yes a 4ft is the longest that will fit in the boot - I bought one of Wizardbilts' spare wheel mounting kits for mine, works very well indeed and stops the jack ending up under piles of stuff. Also means you can carry your jack and six passengers should the need arise.

Mine's a Jackall, no complaints apart from the lack of a plug in the end of the handle. I fixed this by cutting a circular plug from some scrap wood with a hole saw, tapping it into the jack handle, then covering it in wood glue to seal it against water.

Iain C:
Thanks for the tips guys...in fairness it looks like all of them will be OK!

J.D.:
In my disco I bought a 4x4 lock rack and when I put chequerpalate on the inside of the rear door, it is bolted onto the reare door, but horizontally on the inside of the door. Out of the way and to hand.
