Modified Halfords trolley jack

[M.C..]

Had a bit of time today so made myself a new saddle for the Halfords trolley jack.

Now I am getting a second set of wheels I will need to take a jack with me to tracks so it was either take my big sealey jack or this.
I have never liked the saddle on these as it is too small so found some steel then turned it to what I wanted then milled a pocket into the top to add some rubber and stop it sliding out.

I am pleased with the result but not tested it yet.

and a little video of making it

Looks great. I can't get mine under my car though without it being on blocks of wood. Its only on sportlines.

Same here. My mates got a low entery one, that's quite good. Still had a small plate though!

Thats the problem with this it does not fit under without being driven on wood first I'm on cooksports, that's why I brought the sealey
