ChrisS Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Was in Costco on Saturday. They have these little belters at £69.99 + VAT (£84) I like my toys so could not resist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scubapics Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Does this jack fit right under the front and rear jacking points? Or do you still need to lift the car on planks first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Does this jack fit right under the front and rear jacking points? Or do you still need to lift the car on planks first? Mine goes under my lowered car with USDM Nismo sideskirts on it with no need for planks. Quite simply the only reason I bought it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you mean to say that you jack up your car using the sill jack points? Or are you using the differential and front cross member jack points but accessing them from the side rather than the front or rear of the car?

elfman Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 I'd like to know where people are jacking there cars up from to, i remember reading on here someone was using a hydrolic lifter like this one, with some wood and using the sill jacking points? i was going to use my hydrolic lifter but voted against it as i wasn't sure where to jack from and didn't want to kill anything. Bit of a noob when it comes to jacking cars up, most others i can do but i really dont want to kill the zed hahaha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tez162003 Posted March 14, 2011 Share Posted March 14, 2011 had my one of these for year and a half now, also got mine from costco. Still going strong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lincolnbaggie Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 Haven't got access to a costco, but found the same one (I think) on e-bay (item no 250822174977). Anyone know if costco still do them and what the price is now (and how I can get one), or should I get this one off e-bay? Need a low entry jack as mine has barely 10 cm of clearance at the sides. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
