615mm of lift got me excited
Remember 1100kg is its rated capacity. The ultimate capacity (I.e. just before failure) would be around 2.5 times that, or whatever the safety factor is.
I would not be wanting to be utilizing a jack to nea its capacity each time I use it. The lift height is handy though.
I've also got the SCA 3t 550mm one and its perfect for me. Don't know why they changed it to 505mm now, but that one would still be my preference, can always chock up with a decent bit of hardwood to get more height. Has the best capacity and reach at a decent price.
Unfortunately the ToolPro 3000kg jack height raised is 505mm as per this pic I took today at Supercheap Mentone.Quote:

Correct. The new model lost 50mm of height when they updated it. Mine is the older model.Quote:

Pro Eagle Australia. The Offroad Jack that gets you BACK!!!
At least the neighbours wouldn’t complain as you drag it around the garage/driveway with those lovely soft wheels [emoji1787]Quote:

I’ve been kinda wondering the same thing actually [emoji4]
I find trying to lift one corner at a time makes it bloody unstable trying to get axle stands under the chassis as it tries to twist and pivots on the opposite wheel. My experience has been lifting it from the center of each side allows you to do a side at a time and it doesn't move around so much and to do that you need a jack with a decent lift.Quote:

Raise to max suspension height, fit stands, lower vehicle.Quote:

Not convinced on the centre of chassis rail either.
What home job requires more lift than the above?
