Might be great when off-roading in high mountain trails.
Agree
Great idea so quick and easy
It is. Especially for winter tire changeovers
Show that yellow car on the lift , lol

Here it is!
Could you see using to lift a corner of vehicle on your 4-post lift using pinch weld and maybe a pinch weld rubber adapter on the air bag jack? I'm thinking of attempting that.
I think I am going to mod this one for exactly that. The handle is proving to be annoying also. I think id rather just move it around by hand and get rid of the wheels, handle, etc.
If you have any 10mm corrugated conduit around, it might be a good idea to sheathe the airline hose at the joint between the base of the jack and the arm. The bolts as well as the swivel are likely to chafe the airline and that's a surprise you might want to avoid. I have a bunch as it's cheap and easy to come by on Amazon and others, so I sheathed the entire line through the arm just to protect it from my small cluttered garage and abuse.
That’s a great idea!
As im typing the joke about battery tools you bring it to light 🤣
😂🤣😂🤣
Can the rubber plate on top be removed to put in like a harbor freight cross beam?
You could modify it to I’m sure, but it won’t be a “bolt on” install I don’t think
They used these sorts of jacks in endurance racing during the 1970's and 1980's. Faster than a manual jack, and better for the extreamly tight pitlanes of europe... Cool shit
it is fast for sure!
How many gallon compressor do you need? I'm thinking a 3 gal won't cut it? Will a 6?
any size will work, it just may be slow to full height. I think a 3 would do a full lift though.
Nice demo!
Question, now that you've had this over 7 months, have you used it a lot and if so, is it still working well?
I'm wondering how these bag type jacks hold up as compared to those 12V scissor jacks and those 12V hydraulic (cheepy) jacks?
To be honest, I don't like the handle at all. I plan on removing it. Then I will like this a lot more. I find I'm on the ground doing the final positioning anyway,, and the handle is just in the way. I've never tried out a 12v scissor jack, but I think this would be more stable since it has a big foot print.
@@DeathTollRacing Thanks for that.
I agree, from all the vids I've watched on this particular design, that handle is a weak point.
I watched another video on a VEVOR 3-tone (white color of all things) and noticed that the handle is very different. It's not adjustable like that. It just is low to the ground (ish) and doesn't have any areas to kink the hose.
I think that I like that better. I don't see the need to "adjust" the handle as we only have a Honda CRV and I'm looking for an easier way to lift it to change the tires. Pretty much, nothing else.
I have this version in my Amazon cart right now, but before that, I put in the 5 ton version, red. LOL
As I went to complete the order, I noticed that F'ING Amazon wanted $81.xx for shipping! NO FREE SHIPPING unless I signed up for Prime! ROFL
I refuse to use Prime. Long story.
Anyway, thanks for your confirmation. I really appreciate it.
Nice garage
What's up on the lift looks like a 4x4 car/ truck?
Thanks! It’s a 1965 Pontiac Safari Wagon. I did a full build series on this channel on it but it failed to ever take off. Here’s a Timelapse build video of it.

@@DeathTollRacing I just got done watching the video time lapse
Killer build super cool
You did a great job
Thanks!!@@johnmoser2689
If you took a air tank it would be awesome for off road.
and some rigs have onboard air too. So it may be a good option. Especially if you take the arm off so it stows easier.
Is that a Willys?
It’s a wet Willy’s.
