Jack?

**glendog74** · 20-11-2008, 09:25 PM

Sorry, boring question for the guys who own a spare set of track day wheels:

What type/make of car jack do you use when swapping them over?

I need to get one for next year when i take Cups along with me.

Cheers!

Hi i have 1 of these but i just fit the cups before i go

If you jack it up just before the rear wheel you can do front and back at the same time

Glad i was of some help

Just make sure that it has the 2 pumps at the bottom of the handel
as the jack with 1 is a bit slow to jack the car up

This has 1 look at the spring you can get it with 2 thats the better jack

Seen some stuff about the rear jacking points being weak. You can jack up the whole side of the car just using the front point too.

yep, i only use front points and 1.5T jack easily lifts the car for both side wheels

and make sure its low entry jack of course (normally have smaller front rollers)
