3 Ton Trolley Jack
Back in Jan 2011 I bought a 3Ton trolley jack from Paddock Spares...I reckon I have used this a total of 5 times and it's now ,I've contacted Paddock this morning the problem is that it is out of warranty(1 Year) and they no longer stock them or any others.As a goodwill gesture they will refund half the purchase cost,was( £27.00 + vat) off of my next order
I now need to find a replacement ...any Reccomendations ?

Cliff, the Costco ones are good but very heavy. I have a Sealey one, slightly lighter but about £40 more than the Costco one.

i have a 2ton from machine mart used very often works a treat had it for prob 6-7 yrs no hiccups, so if the 3ton one is as good i would plump for that one. the 2t lifts the d3 happily.
