Trolly Jacks

Hi Everyone

 

I'm getting my car on Saturday (S1 elise) but its got the 110/120 ride height on S2 suspension.

 

I've got a cheapo trolley jack at home that measures 135 from the floor to the lifting cup, so obviously not much use with the new car.

 

What jacks do people use on here and how much / where from...

 

Ideally I don't want to spend a fortune, but I can see that Alloy machine mart job at £80+VAT calling, just had a vat-free card through the post too. Anyone got any other suggestions?

 

Cheers

 

Will

My trolly jack is also too high, but I'm a pikey so I just drive the car onto some wooden blocks first!

I got the low level (steel) entry trolley jack - also from Machine Mart - around £35. Chose this one as I just keep jack in garage so no need to transport. Costco also do aluminium jack around same price as Machine Mart one.

How come?

 

I've spent more money at machine mart than I care to admit in the last year, how do you get one of those?

 

Their aluminium racing one does look like the muts nuts - costco you need to be a member but theirs looks quality too.

 

I'd just go for the wooden blocks too :()

 

Welcome by the way !!! :)
