trolley jack recommendations - tuttyboy84 - 04-01-2015

I need a new trolley jack for home use has anyone got any recommendations i like the look of the sgs ones bit has anyone got any experience of them??

I got one of their low profile jacks for xmas, yet to use it but got it on the strength of other peoples recommendations.
SGS stuff seem to get great reviews and they aren't to pricey either

Wow them sgs ones are cheap even cheaper with this current deal.lots of reviews on them aswell,got to be worth a punt for 33 pound.

If you go to Halfords with trade card their low entry Jack is £32.

But sgs is pretty good, they're rather local to me.

I have the halfords entry one, had it for the last 5 years and it's done the job no problems, £50 came with axle stands, wheel chucks and a trolley to lay on all still working Smile

Anyone else have the issue of the halfords low entry jack going down when it's holding the car in the air?

RE: trolley jack recommendations - xudlingo - 10-05-2015

RE: trolley jack recommendations - welshpug - 10-05-2015

QFT. Never work under your car without axle stands.

A big one lol
On a serious note the aluminium "race jacks" are good. I have a blueproint one and it's so light and easy to throw about. Think it's 7 pumps to the top Wink

Same as mine and its a quality bit of kit albeit probably more expensive than the average home user wants to spend!

RE: trolley jack recommendations - Paul_13 - 10-05-2015

Ha it was going down before I had the chance to get the axle stands in!

RE: trolley jack recommendations - kee616 - 10-05-2015

as I said mines served me well Smile
