T max high lift jacks, any good?
Disco Matt:
Mine's a genuine Jackall and didn't cost much more than that (£29 ex VAT from Paddock about two years ago) - worth paying the extra to my mind. I just wish I could find a suitable shackle to go through the top of it for winching, the pins on the ones I have are all too thick.

Could you not just use a bolt on adaptor like the clamp that comes with Hi-lifts?

I've got the top clamp attachment - would that be strong enough? I was planning to just put a shackle around the jack so it jammed against the top clamp and then attach a strop to that but wasn't sure if that was safe.

Drill the top hole out slightly. You are never goign to jack onto the very top hole so it doesn't matter. Thast what I have done.
