Air Jack

[FlyNdrive]

Guy's,

A member in out club came across this air jack for a fraction of the cost of the ARB air jack and have 3 models 2,3,and 4 ton). It works with the exhaust, or an air compressor. The air connection is external, so it can fold into a smaller space. I wanted to mention that I do not know anyone at the business or have no connections to them. I ordered one and will check back here when I get it.

What size did you order?

 

[FlyNdrive]

I got the 3 tun. It's more than enough for my FJ Cruiser.

If any of you want to get together and call they have a "jobber" price for a discount. I got a good discount because a member of out club got several people to call in. The more that called the cheaper it got.

The ARB X-jack all ready had great reviews, once someone gets this please post your thoughts and opinions, Im anxiouse to know. I really want one though.

There are a few exhaust jacks coming out of China right now... prices aren't bad either. I would also like to see a comparison to the ARB version.

I may have the chance to test one of the Chinese models soon. I will not have another to compare to , or experience with them, but I will offer my insights when the time comes.

my roommates dad was actually telling me he has been doeing this for years now. He's a mechanic shop forum for big rigs out here in West Texas and says he wish he would have patented this idea sooner, he always thought too just never went followed through. He says he actually has been using a certain type of air bag to lift his BIG RIGS! those are like 20 ton vehicles! anyway, he says he will bring one down along with a CB that will fit my truck so if it works (im sure it will) ill show you a free one, that does the same thing.:26_7_2:

Unless he's been doing it for 40-50 years, he's a bit too late. Air-bags are nothing new for industrial lifting, however marketing them to off-roaders is.

I've got a Titan and a Bushranger here, I'll try and put them side by side for some pics. I did test them both side by side, but the story belongs to a local 4x4 magazine (U4WDA Compass) and my lips are sealed for the time being

 

[westexasrepublic]

ok well is the story published yet, so I can read it there?

Interesting, this is also called the Titan Jack but there are some discrepancies between it and the one in the first post.

The Airjackusa/Chandler has a maximum height of 30" vs 22" from Streamline import. The bushranger X-jack is also stated to be 30"

FWIW, I have contacted Streamline before and they said their Titan jack is made in China.

Well, I don't know much about it but I saw an air jack in the new NorthernTool catalog. IIRC it was around $100...
