    Well, I rang PowerLift at Lawnton - to get a price on the Lifttech 2000Kg jack - model YM200XK (as seen in the pdf catalog I posted a few posts earlier in this thread).

    $298 inc GST.

    That's $100 more than Santa has given me to spend.


    Rang Repco - the (probably pimply faced) kid that answered the phone was as useless as an orthodontist to a duck, and certainly knew nothing about any sale.


    I don't suppose anyone knows another (cheaper) course of Liftech jacks in Brisbane area ?)

    Have a look at the Liftech Garage Jacks and tell me which one ya reckon you have RonMcGr. (and if on reflection you'd have gone for one of the other Liftech garage jack models)

    Thanks muchly.
    Sorry for taking so long to get back to you, we have been up to Tin Can Bay area sitting in the van whilst it rained, and rained.....

    I'll ring Robbie King from tyre and wheel solutions for you, tomorrow. He bought the same jack and paid less for it


    I have the blue and yellow 2 tonne one VM20QXK, as does Robbie.

    Cheers

    Mike,

    Robbie bought his from Coventry Auto, in Brendale for $230.

    It maybe worth a call

    I think I paid 50 bucks more than that from the guy in Lawnton.
    You could always say, "Robbie King from Tyre and Wheels Solutions, told me you guys sell them for $230".
    Robbie is around the corner on South Pine Road, near Leitches Rd intersection.

    Cheers,

    OK well I've just got home and assembled the Liftech jack. It's one solid bastard bit of gear.

    Now it says I have to lubricate it before use.... (sigh). Now I have to buy some grease and find that bloody cheap chinese grease gun I bought a while back.

    What grase shall I buy lads.

    Oh and Ron Mc - what hydraulic oil should I buy for this jack ?
