Halfords cheap 3t trolley Jack - Autojack £42.95

Well I pulled the trigger on this baby:
http://www.halfords.com/workshop-tools/gar...olley-jack at £42.95 + £2.99 shipping

Was a bit of a risk as I thought it was quite cheap for a 3T and I got emails from Halfords to say that it would be sent to me directly from the supplier, which was a bit of a worry (Toolsave Ltd)

Turned up today and early impressions were good considering the price:

Just swapped all 4 wheels and it was nice and easy to use without any issues - yes you get what you pay for, but I'm verry impressed on what I got for under £46 Thumbs Up

Here's half way changed (Went from 19" HSE to 18" XS) Thumbs Up

Looks good and not as bulky as some of the other jacks 8)

Does it have enough travel to lift the wheel off the ground when jacking under the chassis?

I do like the look of the SGS jacks but I have limited space at home at the minute so if these are smaller I might have to go for it Thumbs Up

Don't fall for the £15 off your next purchase voucher that is offered on Halfrauds web site as it is a scam to extract £15 per month out of your bank account and is not run by or has anything to do with Halfrauds Thumbs Up

I first heard of toolsave when the box arrived Laughing so, I can live with loosing a few quid - still really happy with it, 1st time in nearly 4 years of ownership that I now feel comfortable lifting the beast. And it goes well with my new 3T axle stands Thumbs Up

@M3DPO, thanks for the tip, I was going to log on and see how the offer worked, but it's in the bin now Thumbs Up
