What are those trolleys called that can be put under your car wheels so you can push your car sideways! Any links to them on TM! I'm running out of space & have to think of more creative ways of storing my cars. Thanks.

Thanks for the quick reply guys! I dont shift them too often, maybe once every couple of weeks. I didnt think about the floorjack being used, but part of my factory floor is very old & the concrete is almost exposed aggregate in some parts. Perhaps I could smooth parts with mortar & user a floor jack.

Get the wheel dollies. Get 4 of them. They are heaps better and less agravating to use than using trolley jacks. You can execute spinning a vehicle around within its own length or anywhere inbetween using dollies. You can't do that with a trollyjack. If your diff(s) have serious offset then a jack won't work either. I've got trolleyjacks, dollies and a need to move cars around everyso often . the long term stuff ends up on dollies. The ones that are sold by Supercheap and Repco etc . ummm Wayco, Powerbuilt yada yada . they are all much of the sameness. The ones here are Powerbuilt ones but I swear to god they are the same as the ones down at Supercheap. I keep heavy arsed solid axle Luxies on dollies . with no problems at all.

Cool guys. I've just bought a vette & the exhaust runs below & around the diff, so jacking from the centre is next to impossible. PLUS, some dolly's would be handy for the boat too. I never thought of that until now.
they got a jack built in . the other stuff looks like you got to lift the wheel and slide it under the tyre and the wheels look like from a couch and fall off . supersheep have these on special sometime but that sorto of thing be what i be getting on and off tyres fast. they squeeze togather lifting car off ground

doctor d--Ive got a set that you have to drop the wheels into.On solid castors so once the wheel is in you push the car left/right back forwards etc. Ive used them a few times and they are great.

I have two of these and also two dollies. The built in jacks are far easier than the dollies, but you need more space.If you want to push the car up against the wall, then you'd have to leave the "go jacks" in place.Great - just as long as you don't need to use them on another car. The dollies can be a pain as you have to jack the car up to slide them under the wheels.
