My old halfords jack has given up the ghost, only had it a couple of years, but is already pissing out oil and won't lift any weight. What jack can you guys recommend? Just something for the garage, will be used once in a blue moon at home, so don't need anything fancy or expensive

Thanks
Rich

 

Another Halfords one

 

Get the big £90 one from Halfords, withga trade card it works out about £72!! Brilliant jack too

 

I bought mine off renton, its fucking spot on, not sure if he still has any left or not, drop him a PM

I think mine's the 3 tonne best seller, nice and big with low saddle, goes high, ideal.

 

Costco have got them silver ones in, light weight and the larger of the ones I've seen. £60 I think

 

I have a cheap halfords one, bright red so you dont loose it.

It was being used virtually every weekend and I've even left it overnight holding a corner up (I know you're not meant to).
No problems yet.
On the Minor i'd jack the whole back end up from the diff casing easy enough.
The jack has never gone down or leaked.

The only problem is, the small ones dont have much lift height so you end up messing about with blocks of wood on occasion.
