3 ton jack recommendations?

Shoddy · Nov 21, 2015

Hi,

My 2 ton trolley jacks seem to make hard work of lifting my bus. Can anyone recommend a 3 ton jack they've bought that didn't cost the earth?!

Cheers
Craig

I got this one and its really good http://www.sgs-engineering.com/garage-equipment/trolley-jacks/tja25-aluminium-trolley-jack" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; not the cheapest though but worth it, feel much safer lifting the bus on it compared to cheaper ones i've had

Which two tonne jack do you have?

I've been using the old 2.25 model of http://www.halfords.com/workshop-tools/garage-workshop/trolley-jacks/halfords-2-5-tonne-speedy-lift-4x4-trolley-jack" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; for the past few years, it's been faultless and very easy to use.

I also have another 2t one I've had for about 20 yrs. both seem to make hard work of getting it up onto stands and don't fill me with confidence.

Was looking at one of these....http://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/121705774672" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
