T max high lift jacks, any good?

<< < (3/3)

I  must admit I hate my Jackall as it collapses without warning when lowering.
It's seen little use and not abused so not neglect or damage  - just horrible.
I don't know if HiLifts are any better but I don't trust my Jackall any more after loosing the skin off the end of one finger  - it showed me that it could easilly have been the whole finger.

My genuine Hi-lift does that ......but only when it's not actually supporting any weight :wink:
can lift it up to the jacking point too (saves the need to "pump" the handle all the way)

Mine did it with the full weight of a Range Rover.
Luckilly no damage done other than my finger  :(

Mine was doing that, some oil to lubricate the pin cured it.
