I was googled portable workshop hoists and it was among the finds.
It appealed to me too and it wouldn't be all that expensive or hard to knock one up.

SupporterThose things look absolutely perfect for a home user. I imagine getting one to australia at reasonable cost would be almost impossibleUnless you know someone with a shipping container heading to australia ?

Unless you're removing a wheel or wheels. I can't see it being useful enough to justify the cost for that reason alone.
AT REST
I drive the front wheels up on my car ramps and the jack the rear and put chassis stands under the rear axle.
I was in Sydney in my 8 tonne truck when I blew a gear box, didn't need to jack it up in my cousins driveway.
But I bought (at a tool store) a hydraulic Mower/Bike lift with wheels, it fitted perfectly under the box, it allowed me to pull box to rear to clear clutch/bellhousing, then lower it and pull it out under the chassis, POP, same going back in, cost under $200 and gets a lot of use other than pulling 400Kg. gear boxes out, good investment, Regards frank.
So how does everyone work under their car?
Recently did the trans service, Transfer box service, diffs and driveshafts.
Not enought room under the landy for a big fella if like me if im using my creeper so i made up some blocks lifts and put them under the wheels.
Im not big on working under the car just on axle stands - probbably too paranoid, but had one fail on me years ago and it wasnt a nice experience.
but, check this out - these are not for sale in AUS but pretty cool and i want some ....

Heres what i currently do for a bit of extra room under the car ...
Whats everyone else do?
