its cool and all, but dont take this the wrong way, but where is the part that actually lifts its the rig? I think you need to add something onto it like what I circled below. Other that I think its cool thats its functional.

yea I was guna say that but forgot.I made it last night ill get some updated pics in a little bit.

[Zuki Tyler]

Definitely gives me some ideas...I don't know if I could keep my interest in it for 4 hours though.

Why does your HF "farm jack" have all of it's paint on it and is still reasonably straight? I bent mine with a Samurai..:roll:

[trost]

lol cuz its brand new...ill have to go get it all beat up...

[Zuki Tyler]

I had to buy mine since I got high-centered in my BACKYARD.

[trost]

Being temporarily stationary is always half the fun!

Only the jeep guys are jerks about that kind of stuff...Owning a Zuk is like joining a family.

It seems labor intensive.

Once I get my truck actually finished, I think I'll look at some HO scale train track...seems like a single I-beam would make for a great jack.

I am not really a fan of nylints BUT that thing is cool :mrgreen:
