An alternative to a vehicle lift.....
Snake110:
:shock: that is possibly the daftest setup ive seen in years [-X
if someone pulled a stunt like that at my place of employ
they would be out the gate so fast their hair would catch fire.
and WHY do you want to lift a 90 just to change the diff ??
i have replaced umteen diffs over the years and never had to jack a rear up yet !!

The tyre under the side of the landy is more of a joke for the photo, the fork lift has a sudden drop fail-safe built into it.....we did check that was definatly working before we got under it! :lol:

I've a Jackall "Jack Safe" which is similar - ie like a mini fork lift.
It's supposed to be operated by a Jackall or HiLift but I hate the nasty things after loosing a big chunk off the end of one finger so simply use a big bottle jack instead.
The uprights are the same beams as a Jackall so you can manually lift / click to just under the bumper or rear crossmember and then use the bottle jack to then lift wheels off the ground.
Very secure unfortunantley I don't think they make them any more so glad I've got mine.

as bad of an idea as anyone air jacks inflated by the exhuasts. use a proper strong jack and hd axle stands :boohoo: ](*,) :help: :pale:
Disco Matt:
Nothing wrong with an air jack, just so long as you accept that it's only a tool for lifting vehicles and shouldn't be used as a substitute for axle stands.
