they not clarke ones? the ones for lowered cars? i seen them when i was there a couple of weeks back.

 

i think the alco ones are the ok ones not the clarke ones. that is cheap though! where the hell is a costco!

 

Anyone got a pic of one??

 

No! simlar to the machinemart ones but 2 ton, cheaper and better
i have a pic of mine so will try to find it

ally ones will bend and crack . sod that ! i have a 3 ton steel low entry one with a high lift and i trust that all day long

 

Sure you don't mean Arcan, like this one?

Your exactly right mike H
I mean't Arcan
Just the same as the link above only 40 cheaper than that!!!
I have one and its only 3 ish pumps to full hight
Get to Costco now peeps

 

I'm with Gillm on this one, mate of mine had one. on jacking I watched it bend, couple weeks later it snapped!

 

What brand was it, and roughly where did it crack? the Arcan one is pretty chunky, but I'll keep an eye on it, based on that.

 

where there's blame theres a claim, just dont drop the car on your head, a finger will do.

 

I`ve just bought one today and jacked the car up from the front crossmember.

5 pumps to full height, and no bending or straining at all.

We`ll see how long it lasts, but TBH it`s better than driving onto a piece of wood or using the Widowmaker to lift the car a couple of inches, before using a `normal` trolley jack.

 

might go down to costco later and pick one up with my plastic friend, I too am fed up of driving onto wood and then pumping my jack 100000000 times to get it off the floor.

 

do you need to be a costco member or whatever?

 

i havent properly read all the posts, but ive heard about alloy jacks snapping.. dont know if its true though..

id rather stick with a steel one, whether its heavy or not... its SAFE

i got a SEALEY 3T Trolley jack with 6T Ratchet Axle Stands & Car Creeper all for 99... and i think the christmas offer is on at sealey again this year...

its been outside most the time and is still going strong..

 

anyone know if they are still selling them

 

I was in there last Friday looking at the car bits n bobs - I didn't see any - not that I was looking for them in particular though...

Manchester branch that was
