so, hows about a large scissor type jack with instead of a threaded rod, a rear D2 Suspension airbag that you hook up to your tyre compressor to lift up the car when you get a flat ? and thus carrying a spare airbag for the rear at the same time

Or leave rod and use that new electric impact drill you want.

(you can actually purchase these commercially.

yeah, i thought about that, but then there would be nothing for lateral support to stop the airbag going sideway, dunno if the air pressure alone would be enough to hold it without going sideways ?
yeah i have seen those airbag jacks, but hey, i got 2 spare airbags sitting in the shed and want to carry at least 1 as a spare, so why not multi use it :)

the aribag jacks have a telescope frame on the inside for the donut versions and external for the stupidly heavy duty ones.
not to be confused with an exhaust bag jack.
