[QUOTE="mudgee hunter, post: 568222, member: 9124"] It's not really a "high lift " Jack . A standard 200mm high bottle Jack will on average lift 185mm . A twin ram might lift an extra 120mm. = 305mm "Dangerous"... you should only ever raise the car high enough to change it, common knowledge not to get under the vehicle when only using a any Jack. And always use car stands if you do so. I always get the spare out firstly and lay it half under the side of the vehicle until it the flat is off, then a quick swap at refit. I've had a scissor Jack strip it's thread before and collapse. You never get under a car again only using a Jack after seeing that! Anyhow , at the end of the day... They are a better option to have over a single lift Jack. [/QUOTE]
