Buddys dad was using them on the front of his solid axle dodge, and man did they seem to work neat. Im thinking about picking up a pair for myself. My good hein warner 3 ton floor jack can go up 23", but this would be handy if you just needed to jack the front or rear and change or rotate tires, do brakes, etc. Thoughts?

The only thing i dont like is the saddle design, granted our old walkers are the only design i like.



Oh, i think they were on sale yesterday for 30, had two in the store, but i walked by them because the 30 dollar label was not in the right spot Oh well its only 20 more for two right?

That looks like a real neat item to have with you for trail repairs.

That's a cool concept but it's useless if the thing won't fit under the axle or go high enough to lift from a frame rail and unload the suspension and raise a tire off the ground.

Well they may work on my semi-stock height trucks. Fit under the d44 in my buddies 99 dodge 1500 with stock whateversize tires.

Dad picked up two of them today. Sweet saves me the cash


He doesnt like the bottle jack part of them though, said the valve feels to springy. I havent had enough time to play round with them yet though.
