Can someone tell me which auto shop sells the big trolley jacks? I don't mean the small ones like at SCA, but the big solid chunky ones like 3ton or more? SCA & Repco don't have them, only the small crap ones. Any ideas where I can find them? Thanks

Did you ask or just look? -not having a go but often they aint on shelf but available ex warehouse. Sulco would be my first thought though

Couldn't find them on the website. Is it one of the big workshop style jacks? The ones you cant really lift, you need to roll them around. I think they like $300+? They use them to lift the whole rear end or front end up rather that one wheel at a time. I wonder if a tyre shop would sell me a used one hah.
! You went to Australian websites. NZ doesn't list them. Fooled me. So yeah still looking! I found some on TM but prefer a shop I can walk into, but will resort to TM if I must.

Ring appco. They are repcos more serious big brother. Or twl. Or bay engineering supplies. Or auto Trail. Or partmaster. Or wholesale industrial supplies. Or the tool shed. They will all have them.

check what standard they are built too.
the supercheap ones are to the latest and strictest standard. many are not as they are not a mandatory standard in nz yet.
also wide and big wheels are awesome.
if you move it alot into utes etc pay more for an alloy jack you will stuff your bock otherwise.
Same, reasonably happy with it. Weighs an absolute proverbial.
