Bigman1207 Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Just saying . . . . Ordered and unpacked a 3 ton balloon jack today. . Tried it on my talivan and it literally lifted back wheel a good sized inches off the ground . . Loads of room to pop axel stands under Best buy this year off ebay . . . Fingers crossed it lasts!

sutty2006 Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 We used to have one at work for on site repairs on vans. Was a good bit of kit. Until the van got sold on and the jack “disappeared” Bigman1207 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grogee Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Link? also does it have its own pump or do you use compressed air? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
groovylee Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 ive been looking at something like this for trials use, as i have an on board compressor, so would be useful on muddy ground etc instead of lugging a 2 ton trolley jack around. i'll start having a look again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesacosa Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 something like that this would be perfect for the Favorit and the Panda which have nowhere sensible to jack them up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shite Ron Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Is it this one? Looks a good price. I remember these with a mk5 Cortina L in the advert but cannot find anything on the internet apart from this Volvo one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datsuncog Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 I seem to remember these advertised in catalogues during the 1990s - might have been those 'Innovations' catalogues that used to arrive inside the Sunday papers. Seemed slightly risky to me at the time, but I can see how they might actually work quite well. It'd be kinder to my tarmac drive than a trolley jack, for sure. Following with interest...
