Dicky Posted January 3, 2016 Posted January 3, 2016 Anyone recommend or Curse a 12v Jack. Been looking around but getting conflicting reviews. Would like a 2 ton but could get away with a 1 or 1 1/2T. Quote
Dicky Posted January 9, 2016 Author Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) I'm surprised no one has bought one of these. This is the one I've decided on but it's out of stock until April, so I've put my name down and will report back. Getting the car off the ground is half the work so hope this works ok. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Electric-Wheelnut-MAKES-WHEEL-CHANGES/dp/B00ANKV9GQ Edited January 9, 2016 by Dicky Quote
gunny reed Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 Hi Dicky if you go on to eBay you can get the jack for £45 but not with impact gun. Quote
BulletMagnet Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 So what i am seeing is a standard scissor jack, with added doo dah for motor? Quote
ioneabee Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 I'm at a bit of a loss as why you would want/need one ............ I mean its not difficult to wind a jack up and if you need it because of a disability, said disability is going to stop you doing any work on the car ? 1 Quote
BulletMagnet Posted January 10, 2016 Posted January 10, 2016 (edited) You could use the jack you have in the Zeds boot, then cut the hook bit of the handle, shape one end into hex and put it on a drill. Hey presto electric jack Edited January 10, 2016 by BulletMagnet 1 Quote

Dicky Posted January 18, 2016 Author Posted January 18, 2016 Just curious, why do you want it? At my age I find that getting the car off the ground is half the problem. Apart from this it will be useful for my wife and daughter to carry in my wife's S-Max if ever the need arises. Quote

Hey presto electric jack I had thought of that but just assumed my battery drill wasn't up to the task. But I'll give it a go after seeing your vid. Thanks Quote
